An independent label from 1979-80, run by the band Home Service from their base in Tottenham. Crystal Groove's first release was an EP by Home Service, featuring 'Wake up' and two other tracks (7e-1; 1979). It went on to issue at just more 7" records: a single by Home Service, and an EP by Orior (sic). Numbering was in a 7E-0 series; the solitary single was prefixed 7S. The label's output is reported to have had New Wave / Techno Pop leanings. Home Service had another single out in 1981, 'Only Men Fall In Love', but it came out on the Situation Two label (SIT-6). Thanks to Robert Bowes for the scan.
