HUSTLE



The only record that I have been able to trace on Hustle is the EP shown above, which is by Mark Aynsley with Sullivan's Higher Ground.  It features 'Itching Jar', a Neil Sedaka medley, and two original songs.  Hustle gives the impression of being a DIY concern: the EP format is common among self-financed products; the artists sound like a Club / Cabaret act; and the label design is fairly basic.  By way of confirmation the catalogue number of the EP, PX-1077, belongs to a series used by custom-recording firm CJMO (q.v.) - a fact that makes it impossible to say if there are any more Hustles out there.  The music is MOR Male Vocal Pop stuff, lent a vaguely soulful / funky air by the electric piano / synthesizer / bass / drums backing.
