MAGIC
Something of an
obscurity. The only Magic record I have ever seen is the one shown
above, a single split between two Rock 'n' Roll Revival bands from
London. On the 'A' side was 'Tennessee Saturday Night' by the Million
Dollar Quartet', while The Tooting Frooties supplied the 'B' side, 'Luther
Perkins'. The catalogue number was M-101. Different
sources give different years for the single's appearance, including 1980 and
1981, but according to Frooties main man Noel Brown it
was recorded in 1975 and issued two years later. The label gives a
3-D effect when viewed through 3-D glasses, which must make it unique (in the
'70s anyway) and which goes some way towards justifying the company's
name. The pink card sleeve gave no details of the record, but it had
the company's name on it, so I suppose it qualifies as a company sleeve.
