TADO
Tado appears to have been an independent label
specializing in Country music. At least, of the few of its LPs that I have been
able to trace, the majority were by Country artists such as John Barry and Tom
Christi; though Siver City's self-titled album (TADO-5002) is reputed to be
AOR/Proggy Rock. Catalogue numbers suggest that the company issued at
least fourteen records from the mid '70s onwards; TADO-5014, Tom Christi's 'The
Best That I Can' LP, came out in 1982. At least one single was
released, the Alabama Hayriders' version of 'Rocky Top' (TADO-5006; 1978); it
was pressed by Orlake. As can be seen, albums and singles alike
shared the same TADO-5000 numbering. Thanks to Sam Mauger for
bringing the label to my attention.
