TMQ2 / Ken D.
'Funny Pig'


After his association with Dub ceased, Ken initially sold Dub's product but this was short lived and it was not to long before he established his own products, whilst also relying upon copies of the earlier titles for which he managed to obtain copy stampers. The first titles he produced were Renaissance Minstrels.

Ken was probably the most prolific of the old guard bootleggers, having many associations and labels which regularly changed.

Sub Label Reissues

Ken was well known to have used dozens of labels, some with collaborations with other bootleggers or labels. It seems that it was only a matter of time before these releases would appear with TMQ labels.
