NRG
Another one of those independent
labels from the late '70s. NRG was based in Dundee. It
seems to have released just three singles: 'Jerkin', by the Drive (RE-46;
8/1977); 'No Answers, by The Alternators (SRTS/NRG-001; 1/1978); and the Visitors', 'Take
It Or Leave It' (NRG-002; 2/1978). Manufacture was of the
second two was through SRT. The Drive single is listed on some sources
as having the number NE-456, but the only labels pictured on google have
the RE-46 number. The RE-40 series appears to have been used by Radio Edinburgh Studios for custom
pressings (see REL) so presumably the Drive record was recorded there - it is reported to have
been made in Edinburgh. Thanks to Simon Hughes for the scan.
