TOWNTON



Apparently a one-off independent label - it looks too professional to be a DIY job.   The single 'Shell Shocked' b/w 'Slipping Into Life' by Tontrix (the label says 'Ton Trx') seems to have been Townton's only release.  It had a catalogue number of 1-TON, and it came out in January 1979.  Tontrix featured future members of A Flock Of Seagulls and Dalek I Love You, as well as Hambi Haralambous, soon-to-be leader of Hambi & The Dance, so there was undoubtedly potential in there.  Thanks to Sam Mauger for bringing the label to my attention and for providing the scan.
