MANGO MEDIA
Mango Media appears to have been Barbadian in origin, but it
released at least three 7" singles and one 12" in the UK,
several of them featuring Ray Anthony. The catalogue numbers may
well be the ones that were used in Barbados, which would account for the
huge gaps - most of the records released there weren't released
here. Pressing of the Ray Anthony single shown above, 'The
Arabian Funk' (MANGM-023 / LYN-5511), which came out in or around 1978, was
by Lyntone, as the LYN part of the matrix number indicates. It is
said to be a Jazz-Funk effort. Thanks to Darren Peterson for the
scan.
