TATTY
A DIY label from Brighton. A single by Tatty Ollity, entitled
'Punktuation' b/w 'Never Swat A Fly' (TR-101) seems to have been Tatty's only
release. It was issued in 1979, and was produced by Roger Ruskin Spear, of the
Bonzo Dog Band; the band featured him, Sam Spoons, Dave Glasson and Dave Knight,
which suggests that it may be musically unusual. Pressing was by
Lyntone, the matrix numbers being LYN-6847 / 6848. Interest from fans of
the Bonzos has pushed the price of this single up to around the £40-£50 mark at
the moment (2019). Thanks to Sam Mauger for providing a scan.
