ATOMIC (AR prefix)



This Atomic label was owned by Vincent Crane, of Atomic Rooster fame.  Crane himself was responsible for 'Fire Fighter' b/w 'Crazy 'Bout My Baby' which was issued under the name Green Goddess and was recorded at the time of the firemen's strike in 1977.  Despite the catalogue number, AR-1007, it would appear that that was Atomic's only release.  According to an information slip that came with my copy, Crane - who had mental issues - slipped through barriers at Stonehenge on Boxing Day to place a copy on the altar, and subsequently blamed the single's lack of success on a plot by the government of the day.
