BOULEVARD

    

A one-off DIY label.  Boulevard was named after the home ground of Hull Rugby League Football Club, and its only release was an EP of songs in support of the club.  Wildwood Country was the band responsible for the recording.  The tracks on the EP were 'Old Faithful', 'Airlie Birds' (the club's nickname), 'Super Hull' and 'Going For Touch'.  Its catalogue number, SRTS / FMR-003, indicates that it was recorded at Fairview Music Studios of Hull and made through custom recording firm SRT - some other SRTS / FMR records from the '70s can be found on the Fairview page.  The catalogue numbers of nearby records in the series indicate that 1977 was the year of release.  Thanks to Nicholas Hough for the scan and for drawing the label to my attention.
