STOP POINT
A Reggae label, owned by Winston Edwards and thus
associated with his Fay Music Inc. label (q.v.). Stop
Point appears to have done most of its business in Jamaica, but at least four
singles on the label appeared over here. The first two, 'Indeed I
Love You' by Sugar And Spice (DL-0021) and Gregory Isaacs's
'End Of The World' (DL-0022) came out in 74 and were handled by Dip
Records (q.v.). The third, Tony Brevett's 'Words Of Prophecy' appeared in 1976, with a completely
different label design and was handled by Fay Music
themselves. Its catalogue number, shown on the run-off but not on the label,
was SPR-001, and the matrix number, LYN-3862, indicates that pressing was
by Lyntone. The fourth had a brown label with a thick white central
stripe. Thanks to Robert Bowes for the scans and for drawing the
label to my attention.
