Ron Johnson Records

Ron Johnson Records was an UK independent record label based in Long Eaton operating between 1983 and 1988.[1] The label contributed five tracks to the NME's C86 compilation.[1] Run by Dave Parsons, the label released records by artists such as Big Flame, The Shrubs, A Witness, The Great Leap Forward, Stump, The Mackenzies, Twang and The Ex. Despite the press attention and critical acclaim for the label's bands and releases, sales were insufficient to make the label profitable and financial difficulties brought it to an end in 1988.[1]
