BBC / HI-FI WEEKLY



A one-off, from 1977 - it's debatable whether it can be called a 'label' as such, but I reckoned it was different enough to deserve a page to itself.  An agreement between Spotlight Publications and BBC Records resulted in a free EP which was given away with the April 2nd edition of Hi-Fi Weekly And Record Review.  The EP had a catalogue number of HI-FI-001, logically enough.  The first side offered a small selection of sound effects; the second offered instructions on setting up a stereo system correctly, along with various test recordings.  Hi-Fi Weekly came on the market in the autumn of 1976 and doesn't appear to have survived into 1978.
