Amongst its artists and titles are Althia & Donna with "Uptown Top Ranking", Janet Kay with "Silly Games", Dennis Brown with "Money in My Pocket", and Errol Dunkley with "OK Fred". The Old Gold Label was subsequently set up from here and featured many original classics licensed from other labels, for example Clifford T. Ward's song "Gaye", Python Lee Jackson's "In a Broken Dream", and re-releases by the Everly Brothers, the Equals, Trini Lopez and Ketty Lester.[1]
