A one-off DIY label from a Lancaster band called Blackmail. Their EP 'A Game For All The Family' EP (AR-7021; 1978) was made through custom recording concern Amazon Studios, of Kirkby, Liverpool, in May 1978, and had a catalogue number which was taken from that company's AR-7000 series. Pressing was by Lyntone, the matrix numbers being LYN-5558 / 5559. Changes in personnel seem to have led to the band's demise before 1978 was out, and that appears to have been the end of Tao Productions. In addition to the two 'Prog Rock' instrumental tracks shown on the scan the EP offered a vocal, 'You're A Turn-off', and a Jazzier instrumental, 'A.T.N'. Thanks to Steve Hill, who kindly drew the label to my attention.
