If you aren't familiar with this label, here's some information I found on the internet:
Tiger Lily Records was by run by Morris Levy, the founder of Roulette Records. Purportedly it was a tax scam label created by Levy and was never intended to make a profit. Tiger Lily's modus operandi was to acquire demo tapes from artists and then release them without the artists consent and sometimes without even the artist's knowledge.
That said, Tiger Lily's history remains largely unknown, though it's widely accepted that the label was set up as an attempt to capitalize on mid-1970s tax law loopholes that allowed a company to take substantial tax write offs for investment expenses such as recording costs that failed to generate profits and to offset profits that were made by a legitimate label such as Roulette. The fact that Tiger Lily invested little or nothing in signing artists and recording material doesn't seem to have been a ethical problem for the owners. The label only seems to have been operational for a short period (1976-1977), releasing a series of 58 known albums, though their are significant gaps in the catalog indicating there may have been quite a few more that are simply unknown.
