SURVIVAL
Another obscure label from the mid '70s. Judging by the
highest number I have seen, it would seem that Survival issued at
least eight singles; googling reveals only four, however, and it
appears that several numbers may not have been used. Catalogue
numbers were in an SUR-0 series. None of them are seen all that
often nowadays. It was a member of the President Records family, as
witness the typical President-style demo, and was distributed by
Enterprise. The names of Steve Walker and Chris Royal appear on the
first three records, which suggests that they may have had something to do with
the label. There was another Survival label, in the 1980s, run by David
Rome and Anne Marie Heighway; its singles were numbered in the
SUR-000s. The two companies don't appear to have been related.
