MR. BIG
A London-based one-off
Reggae label, owned by Mike Dorane. Mr. Big's sole release was a single by
Fitzroy (Henry) & The Heart Breakers, 'Can't Take My Eyes Off You'; it had a
catalogue number of 001, and came out in 1975. The following year a
version of the song, credited to Fitzroy Henry, was issued as the
first single on the 'Rockers' label, which was a joint venture between
Dorane and Island Records, so he must have had faith in its commercial
potential. Thanks to Mark Griffiths for the ownership information, and
to Sven / Stampkool of the 45cat site for permission to use his scan
of the label.
