Description

Okay powerpop fans, here is a super-obscure (and perhaps the only?) release from a SF-based band called The Contraband. This record is full of that great late-70s powerpop/punky garage sound - hooks, harmonies, and melodies aplenty. The A side is an uptempo gem, with guitars kicked into overdrive, and loads of hooting and hollering and driving vocals - a true gem if there ever was one! The B side is a midtempo powerpop rocker, and is also quite good! This is ridiculously rare, and it seems like nobody knows about it, so maybe it's your chance to discover this lost gem?
The sleeve is VG+ with some light shelf wear; the vinyl is VG+ with some minor paper scuffs.
The songs are:
In the Night
Searching for Affection


I have LOTS and LOTS more records to come! Buy now, buy next week, and the week after that, and after that, and then wait a week, and then buy more!!!


I can ship multiple items at once, of course (for just a little bit more per each additional item). And I can wait to ship items if there are more items you're interested in bidding on! If you win multiple items, please wait for me to send the invoice (so you don't pay too much for shipping).

All records are shipped in secure carboard packages, are well-padded, and ship with the records outside of the sleeves and stored in a plastic outer sleeve to ensure safe delivery in the same condition in which they leave my house.
