Ah yes it has, just slightly.

That’s fantastic!

That’s quite possible. I’ve just managed to find it but have no idea how to upload it on here. It was downloaded from an online article about RCA, but that’s no guarantee it would be legit.

Thanks Hubert. It doesn’t seem to be on there, but I’ll keep searching. My download was in black and white, but I remember the logo contained shooting stars and curved lines. Very groovy!

Years ago I found a version of the RCA logo, but each letter was filled with a psychedelic type design. I’m assuming it dates back to the late 60s/ early 70s and I’ve never seen it since. I have a poor quality dow […]

I’m adding Mark E Smith.

After running Halloween events at work all day, I fell asleep on the sofa and managed to to miss most of the evening. Shame, as I’d recently tracked down a copy of this and had planned to play it.
