NICO POLO
RECORDS
Independent label: Nico Polo Records. It issued singles in an NP-0000
numerical series. Obscure Christmas novelty record by Tony Robinson and The
Angel Voices (now called Libera). This was Tony Robinson’s venture into novelty
rap records was perhaps overlooked and unappreciated in December 1990, as it
stumbled into the UK Singles Chart at Number 78. Also, the fact that it was
released by independent label Nico Polo wouldn’t have helped matters at all. And
it wasn’t even a cover of The Waitresses’ ‘Christmas Wrapping’, as Robinson
co-wrote the song. Very interestingly, the ‘Blackadder’ actor seemingly
performed the song under the guise of his Sheriff of Nottingham
character. Distributed By Nico Polo Records.
