REAL TIME
RECORDS

 Independent label: Real Time Records managed at least one single. Recorded at Sonoptics Studios, Billingshurst, West Sussex. It issued singles in R.T.G.L-000 numerical series. Distributed By Real Time Records. Mike Hancock joined British Caledonian Airline in 1980, and it was in 1985 that he had an idea to record a song, for the Golden Lion Children's Trust, and with the financial help and support from his colleague, Captain Michael Marsh he recorded "Living out of a suitcase" at Sonoptics studios in Billingshurst. It took around four days to record the song, working with "Big" Jim Sullivan, who produced the record and played guitar with him, also Nick Van Eede provided backing vocals, Nick went on to front a band called Cutting Crew, who had a hit with "Died in your arms tonight".It was difficult to get much media exposure as the record was to benefit one charity, however Radio Mercury gave it a few plays, and he also did and interview on the BBC.  Most of the sales went to friends and colleagues at work, and Commercial Director Alan Deller, donated 50p from every record sold.
