Luxury
was owned by Autralian composer Rick Turk, member of The Seekers from 1981
to 1986.
From
Rick Turk's own bio: In the early eighties,
I launched my own record label called Luxury Records which was distributed
through RCA. We signed 4 very good local bands and had some minor successes.
BUT... I had this great idea to create a character called Vee-U-Meter and
recorded an album of very silly songs that I had written over the years.
One of them was entitled "Lonesome In The Saddle" which some crazy fool
at RCA loved, so it came out as a single. The best part was doing the film
clip where 3 people got injured (not seriously) from various accidents
- being in the wrong place when a piano fell over, coming off a horse,
and getting burnt trying to start a fire!
