Label GB

Cherry Red

Cherry Red is a British label that was founded by Iain McNay in 1978. Also known as Cherry Red Records, this label has become associated with the company Music and Media Group. With the label code LC 6730, Cherry Red has made a name for itself in the music industry. It is important to note that this label should not be confused with the US label of the same name.

Felt is an English indie pop band from Water Orton, Warwickshire. Formed by Lawrence in 1979, they gained critical acclaim and a cult following with their unique sound. Their first single 'Index' was released on Lawrence's own label, followed by a string of releases through Cherry Red Records featuring the talented guitarist Maurice Deebank. Despite achieving a #1 indie single with 'Primitive Painters', Felt never achieved mainstream success but remained influential in the indie music scene. After Deebank's departure in 1986, they signed to Creation Records and released the acclaimed album 'Forever Breathes The Lonely Word'. Over the next decade, Felt released ten albums, fulfilling Lawrence's prophecy made in 1980.

Remastered by Kevin Metcalfe and Lawrence 2022 edition of the previously named Let the Snakes Crinkle Their Heads to Death, this album is now retitled The Seventeenth Century – the original name for the album was changed late in the day. This reversal of misfortune was classed as an awful mistake and Lawrence’s biggest regret. Flash forward to now and this situation can finally be rectified. “You can’t change the title of an album” - they told him – so he said; “if Kraftwerk can and Bowie can then I can too!!”
