Description

Totally unknown and underrated synth punk (from a very wide view)band. Food and Shelter's sole album "Square Dance," released in 1984 on Resistance Records (Marina Del Rey) Featuring members Russell Jessum, Debbie Spinelli (who also played with 17 Pygmies and Cindy Lee Berryhill) and Fey Ruza.

Instruments used include vibes, piccolo, clarinet, horns, xylophone, marimba, and tin whistle. Overall, a great synth punk meets minimal electronics meets Residents era squeezed popish experimentation here. Very strong are the influences of the pop-ish side of LAFMS scene,early Tuxedomoon,17 Pygmies, but also Screamers ,etc. ( mutant-sounds )

Usually records do come in a cardboard sleeve, but THIS LP did come in a metal (tin) sleeve ! incl. a small eight page booklet and an insert about tin included

Released : Resistance Records Catalog#: RR 1917

Vinyl in perfect condition , sleeve too (but the tin sleeve shows sort of corrosion , due to metal + info sheet about the miners is partly damaged /folded and has some browns spots from the tin?

A magnificent document !!!!!!!!!!!!!! and MEGA RARE
