GALE (RST prefix)

 

One of those sad cases where I can do no more than report the existence of a label and show a picture.  The first Gale of the '70s dates from 1972, and it was responsible for a single by Rocky Storms Typhoon, 'Bonnie' b/w 'Because We're Young'.  The band was from the Wakefield area, and the record's catalogue number, RST-001, suggests a private pressing.  Googling fails to reveal the existence of any other records in the series.  The band also played under the name of Rocky Storm & The Stormbeats.  The style of the run-off markings indicates that manufacture was by British Homophone.  Thanks to Sam Mauger for bringing this particular Gale to my attention.
