AZTEC

 

A label from Northern Ireland.  Aztec was responsible for at least one record, a single by Belfast band Dirty Work, who seem also to have been known as Dirtywork.  It featured a version of 'Rose Of Tralee' on one side, and 'Belfast City Girl' on the other, and it was issued in 1976 with a catalogue number of SPO-2.  As yet, googling has failed to reveal the existence of an SPO-1.  The label may have been associated with Outlet Records (q.v.), as the labels have a similar appearance to that of Outlet at the time; the 'O' in the prefix may be a reference to Outlet.  Vocalist Marty Lundy made another appearance on vinyl with Katmandu, who put out a single on the Irish label Spider four years later, 'I Can Make The Future' b/w 'Australia' (WEB-037).  Thanks to Klepsie of the 45Cat site for bringing Aztec to my attention, and to Nicholas Hough for suppling the scan.
