NO
WONDER
A DIY label, owned by Punk group the Newtown Neurotics, of
Harlow. No Wonder issued at least five singles during 1979-84, including
three by that band. The first of them, the
Neurotics' own 'Hypocrite' b/w 'You Said No', has a matrix number of SRTS/79/CUS-363, showing it
to be an SRT custom recording; it is also listed in 'Music
Master' as having the catalogue number A-45 - which does actually appear on the label
- and being distributed by Pinnacle. No Wonder seems to have gone into
hibernation for 1982-83; the Neurotics were signed to another label for that
period. Presumably when their contract expired they revived their own
label. Thanks to Sam Mauger for the scan.
