MARIX
A one-off DIY label. Marix's name strongly suggests
that it was a collaboration between Pat Martin and Johnn Rix, who with the
assistance of the Martin Peters Trio and Gordon Findlay, were responsible
for its sole release - an EP featuring 'Maybe It's You', 'Broken Wings', My
'Love Song' and 'Croce Di Oro'. The first and third titles were penned by
the duo themselves, which is good to see: I have great respect for anybody who
has the ability to write their own songs and the drive to make a recording of
them. The catalogue number of the EP was SRTS/FMR-008, which indicates
that it was made through custom recording concern Fairview Music and pressed by
SRT, and it came out in 1977. Thanks to hedgehopperray of the 45cat site
