RED ADMIRAL



Red Admiral was the label of Europa Sound Studios, of Folkestone.  It was owned by Chris Ashman and Mike Craig, and it issued singles, EPs, LPs and cassettes sporadically from 1979 to around 1986.  The singles, of which there were four, were numbered in a NYMPH-000 series; only NYMPH-001, Arthur Kay's 'Ska-Wars', is from the '70s.  The recordings covered various genres, from the Ska of Arthur Kay through Religious songs by David and Graham to a spoken word album on how to pass your driving test.  The label was revived in 2004; its website can be found here.  Thanks to Robert Bowes for the scan.
