RANDY'S



A Reggae label; part of the Trojan group.  Randy's was initially an outlet for Vincent Chin productions.  It put out approximately thirty-five singles during the period 1970-73; catalogue numbers were in a RAN-500 series.  The first four labels were plain, as the example kindly provided by Robert Bowes demonstrates (1); later ones, from at least RAN-505, were more adventurous (2).  The text 'Made in England' appeared on records from RAN-514 onwards.  Manufacture seems to have been generally by Orlake, as it was for most of Trojan's products at the time.
