BIG FIVE 

 

An obscure label from 1979.  The only Big Five release that internet searches come up with is the single shown above, 'Confusion' b/w 'Far Away' by a band called Alien.  As can be seen, its catalogue number was BF-1001.  The label design was more ambitious than the average DIY effort, which suggests that Big Five may have been a small independent concern, but googling 'Alien' and 'Big Five' gets you plenty of information about extraterrestrial physiologies and nothing about small record companies, so - for the moment at least - there it rests.  Thanks to Klepsie of the 45cat site for bringing Big Five to my attention, and to Charlie Chalk of that same site for permission to use his scan here.
