Dick Smith Phones

Label connected with the Dick Smith Electronics company once owned by Australian entrepreneur, Dick Smith. The name Dick Smith is known for the Australia-wide chain of retail super-stores that sold consumer electronics goods, hobbyist electronic components, electronic project kits and music. One release for this label was the Answering Machine Messages cassette with the listed copyright being Sydney-based Parlie Enterprises. Possibly released in 1989 as the © 1989 PARLIE ENTERPRISES appears to suggest, it consisted of a Serious side (side 1) and a Humorous side (Side 2). The cassette was not intended for insertion into an actual answering machine. The sound examples were intended to be recorded by the microphone of what ever answering machine was at hand.
