JERRY THE FERRET

Another obscurity.
I'm not even sure whether this label is best listed under 'Jerry The
Ferret' - which is the name of the band that recorded the single shown
above, 'One Step Forward' - or 'EGH', the prefix of its catalogue number,
EGH-919: there don't appear to be any more records on the 'Jerry The Ferret'
label, whereas it's possible that there are other EGH's out there. Be that
as it may. There's no date on the label, but Steve Hill has given a date
of March 1978 for its release. The music is described in various sources
as 'Pub Rock' and 'Country Rock', but an example listed as 'NWOBHM' went for a
three-figure sum on ebay - albeit with a picture sleeve and a publicity
sheet. The band released an EP in 1980, featuring 'The Music Goes On' and
three other tracks, but that was on Dead Horse records (DH-2001) and is outside
the scope of this site. Thanks to Robert Bowes for drawing the label to my
attention and for providing the scan, which has the look of an Orlake
pressing.
