	Stiff Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Stiff Records record label was created in London in 1976, at the outset of the punk boom by entrepreneurs Dave Robinson and Andrew Jakeman (aka Jake Riviera).
		Robinson and Riviera were a fiery management combination, and after a series of disagreements, Riviera left Stiff in early 1978 to form the short-lived Radar Records, taking Elvis Costello and Nick Lowe with him as a settlement package.
		Riviera's departure coincided with the end of the 5 Live Stiff's Tour which showcased the talents of emerging artist Ian Dury whose album New Boots and Panties raced up the charts and kept the label in business over the following months.

	ELVIS COSTELLO: I fought the law!
		The story was going around that a journalist from Sounds had been stuck into a corner of Dingwalls (a club in London where Elvis was appearing) by Jake Riviera, Elvis's manager, and told to wait there for Elvis to join him for an interview.
		Fortunately, Jake likes the Trouser Press, so when we asked him for a crack at Elvis, albeit over the phone from 3,000 miles away - hardly the proper circumstances for dragging anything out of a tough interviewee - we weren't left holding the phone.
		Jake and Elvis thought it would be a laugh if Elvis went outside and played for the company staffers when they went outside on their lunch break.

	CostelloNews.com: Jake Returns
		Maybe the smartest thing rocker Elvis Costello ever did in his long career was fire his manager, Jake Riviera.
		Riviera has many enemies in the record business, not the least of which is probably beloved rocker Dave Edmunds.
		Lowe and behold, there was Jake Riviera, now white haired, but still looking for a fight, cursing in his Cockney accent, baring widely spaced teeth, looking very much like a rabid pit bull.

	2 Tone Records - I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down - CHS TT7
		WEA, who had distributed Radar, were less than delighted: they felt they had a stake in Costello's career by virtue of the success of the records they had distributed for him, and so they obtained a court injunction to stop the 2-Tone single being sold.
		By March '80, the situation was clarified: F-Beat was set up by Riviera as an independent company, but WEA continued to distribute their records.
		Several months later, Riviera pressed up a few thousand more of the 2-Tone singles, and these were given away at London and US gigs".

		Jake plopped down in my chair and put his feet up on the desk.
		I went to his room at 8:30 to get Elvis ready for the press conference at 9:00, the autograph signing at 9:30, the television interview at 10:00, the rehearsal at 10:20, the photo session with the Australian press at 11:00, and the dinner with our booking agent at 11:30.
		But when I went to the hotel room he was gone and I found this; Jake said as he handed me a crummy note.

		On this and other labels, Lowe would go on to produce The Damned's Damned Damned Damned and many albums by Elvis Costello, including My Aim Is True, This Year's Model, and Armed Forces.
		Upon moving from Stiff to Jake Riviera's Radar and F-Beat labels, Lowe became extremely selective in his choice of production tasks.
		Rockpile's demise was hastened by a number of conflicts, not between the group, but their management.

	Arts & Leisure: Cruising the Redneck Riviera (Memphis Flyer . 09-08-97)
		The Gulf Coast of Mississippi and Florida has a well-deserved reputation as the "Redneck Riviera," ground zero for the unholy trinity of ugly architecture, rampant commercialism, and tacky tourists.
		I threw my dog Jake and a tent into the back of the car and sought out campgrounds along the coast.
		It's probably not the type of lodging you'd want for a romantic getaway, but if you're looking for cheap travel and a different perspective, it's a fine option.

		A small crowd gather around its doors, stepping back smartly as they swing open on a gush of hydraulics, Elvis' legendary manager, Jake Riviera, leading his people off the coach.
		Jake, Patsy and Cheeseman force their way through the crowd, Costello in the centre of the huddle while directions to the backstage enclosure are sought.
		Jake Riviera now makes an appearance with The Attractions and Dave Edmunds and Rockpile drummer Terry Williams, and we all set off for The Hazyland Disco, which turns out to be predictably garish.

		Jake was just out of a job as the road manager for Dr. Feelgood.

	R. Hell Site Forum...message
		I think Hell actually did take a cross-country trip with Roberta Bayley (one of her photos, of a motel [the "Nomad Motel"!]) is on the cover of the UK version of the book.) So I figured Chrissa was a composite of (at least) Bayley and Mercier.
		I though "Jack" might have been based on Jake Riviera.
		That's pretty much based on NOTHING, though, as I don't actually KNOW anything about Riviera other than he's English and he managed Hell for a brief period around the time "Go Now" is set.

	All this useless beauty - Salon
		Along with a relatively small contingent of fellow fanatics, my friend and I staked out the hotel where the band was staying and waited impatiently in the lobby for a sighting.
		Just as we were about to give up and head back to the hotel dejected, we spied Jake Riviera, Costello's famously combustible manager, pitching a fit at the front desk.
		Even better, just as Riviera appeared to be simmering down, the members of the band Squeeze -- which had opened the show -- rounded the corner, heading posthaste, it appeared, for the bar.

		After leaving UA, Lowe became the first artist on Jake Riviera and Dave Robinson's fledgling independent label Stiff Records as well as the label's in-house producer.
		The album was one of many records — including efforts by the Fabulous Thunderbirds, John Hiatt, and Paul Carrack — he produced in the '80s.
		During much of the mid-'80s, Lowe suffered from alcohol abuse, but with the assistance of his old mates Costello and Riviera, he recovered and gave up looking for a crossover pop hit, concentrating on country-rock and roots rock.

	Clover MP3 Downloads - Clover Music Downloads - Clover Music Videos
		In 1976, Clover relocated from Mill Valley, California, to London, England, where the group hooked up with managers/record company executives Jake Riviera and Dave Robinson and signed to PolyGram Records, which, in early 1977, released this, their third album.
		In the UK, the LP appeared on PolyGram's Vertigo label and was called Unavailable; in the US, PolyGram's Mercury label felt that title was a bit uncommercial and opted instead for the generic Clover, which as it happened had already been used for their Fantasy Records debut album in 1970.
		In any case, it was apparent that Riviera and Robinson felt that they'd hit upon a more authentic, American version of Brinsley Schwartz -- country-rock with an edge.

	Sweetwater Event Information
		Along with manager Jake Riviera and Dave Robinson, Nick formed Stiff Records in 1976 with a timely financial boost from Dr. Feelgood vocalist, the late Lee Brilleaux.
		Following Riviera's departure from Stiff, Nick and Elvis decamped to the Radar label, and Nick's first solo album, Jesus of Cool (renamed Pure Pop for Now People in the U.S.A.), was also the label's inaugural album.
		Featuring the smash hit single, "I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass," it also included many examples of Nick's production mastery and witty pop sensibility that the album's varied musical stylings reflected by the multifarious guises adopted by Nick on the record sleeve.

	Various Artists If It Ain't Stiff.... CD
		Jake Riviera (formerly Andrew Jakeman) had managed pub-rock giants (if that isn’t a contradiction in terms) Chilli Willi And The Red Hot Peppers and in 1976 had just returned from looking after R’n’B madmen Dr Feelgood on their first US jaunt.
		Armed with very little money (apparently Jake never cashed the cheque for fifty guineas which Feelgoods’ guitarist Wilko Johnson donated!) and an excellent graphic artist in Barney Bubbles the volatile pairing of Riviera and Robinson set about delivering an eclectic bunch of artistes to a very small public.
		Jake Riviera took this lot with him when he left, but they didn't succeed in quite the same way as fellow departees Costello and Lowe.
