THIEVES LIKE US

A DIY Punk / New Wave
label. Thieves Like Us was owned by the band of that
name. It issued just one EP, 'Stick Up For Thieves Like Us'
(PX-1093), the catalogue number of which indicates a CJMO
recording. It's debatable whether it qualifies as a label, as such,
or whether the EP should be listed under 'CJMO', but 'Music Master'
lists it as a separate label, so I may as well follow that publication's
lead. That said, MM gives the EP's catalogue number as 'THIEVES L
U-1'. It also gives the distributors as One Stop, and the date of issue as
October 1979. The Thieves went on to make a single for Earlobe Records,
'Mind Made' (ELS-1; 1980). Thanks to Robert Bowes for the scans.
