CREZENT
RECORDS
Crezent seems to have been a DIY label. It
managed three singles, but there was apparently a gap of five years between the
first and the second. 'Whispering Bells' b/w 'Sounds In Our Minds' by Rock
'n' Roll band Talisman was the first; it had a catalogue number of CRE-01 and
came out in 1978. That same year there was an album by the band, 'Sounds
In Our Minds', but that was released on the Lightning label (LIP-5). Two
more tracks from the album formed Crezent's second single, 'Sound In Our Mind'
b/w 'Old Railway Line', which was numbered CRE-001 and dates from September
1983; the single was credited to 'Switch Bac'. By the time CRE-002 appeared
the band name had evolved to 'Switchbac'. Tracks on that single were 'We
Are Rockin'' and 'Raven'; there is a version of the former on the album - was
the single a re-recording. Pinnacle were responsible for its distribution.
By that time the labels were of the injection moulded variety.
