Like most good record label stories, Postcard's starts in a flat in Glasgow, Scotland. Sure, we may know now that Glasgow can be counted on for rain and really good music, but we can all thank Postcard for getting the word out (at least about the music part). Without this label, we wouldn't have heard bands like Josef K and Orange Juice, and then where would we be? Plenty of bands and labels would be scrambling for inspiration, to be sure. Postcard didn't last for long - mainly because everyone involved, including Alan Horne, the man behind the label, was snatched up by the majors - but anyone who likes their music a little on the post punk side wishes Postcard was still picking the bands.
