SPICE (1977)

A DIY concern,
and the first of two Spice labels from the '70s, both of them equally
ephemeral. This particular Spice appears to have been the vehicle for
recordings by a Club / Cabaret band of that name. It seems to have
issued just the one record: an EP containing the tracks 'Under The Moon Of
Love', 'Living Next Door To Alice', 'When I Need You', and 'Love The One You're
With'. Each side had its own catalogue number, the 'A' being SP-001 and
the 'B' SP-002; the 'smooth outer ring, rough inner ring' of the label suggests
an Orlake pressing. Thanks to Barry Adcock for bringing this Spice to my
attention and for providing the scan.
