DINO
Dino Record Productions would appear to have
been a small independent concern. It was run by Nick Risi, and it
issued at least one EP, the one shown above, 'Going Nowhere' by Eddie Buchanan,
a New Faces success and regular on the Benny Hill Show. Its catalogue
number was DN-101, and it came out in 1975. There was also an album
by Eddie Buchanan & Susan Wilson, 'My Special Angel' (DNLP-1001;
1978). An Eddie Buchanan single, 'You Are My Special Angel' came out
on Pinnacle (P-8418) in 1976, so it may be that Dino tended to place its
products with other labels where possible, rather than put them out on its own
label. A Dino company issued mainly compilation albums in the late
'80s and '90s, but there doesn't seem to be any connection between the
two. Thanks to Sam Mauger for bringing the label to my
attention.
