Description

Obscure powerpop album from 1981 on the band’s own label, Flexible Records (no catalogue number stated on either the sleeve or the disc, but the run-out groove has FR001), consisting of 12 self-penned tracks, some of which can be heard on Youtube, but are not my recordings. Pretty amateurish DIY packaging – apart from the lack of a catalogue number, the flimsy sleeve has no spine, and it’s printed back to front, so the front cover has the opening on the left hand side! Not much trace on eBay/musicstack/netsounds/gemm/rateyourmusic/discogs etc of this LP, and only one clean EX copy showing on Popsike/Collectorsfrenzy as sold on auction on ebay last May for £125.

It was recorded at Woodcray Studio near Wokingham in Feb 1981, and cut at County Recording Services, where some of the rarest UK prog/psych private pressings (Levee Camp Moan etc) were made a few years earlier. From its obscurity/look, its possible that only a few copies were made, maybe just for distribution amongst family and friends?

Produced by The Rascals (Andy Aust, Martin Leyshon, Bob Owen, Rob Snook)

Engineered by Nick Horne

Brass arrangements by Andy Maslen

Cover design by Rob Snook

Cover photographs and location by Andy Gatland and Nick Kenyon

Vinyl is Ex- (some small scuffs and light scratches...labels are clean with no writing or tears.....a very nice copy all the same that plays great!)

Sleeve is VG+ (no tears or splits, no holes, no writing and no stickers or sticker residue......but has suffered some spotted staining and ringwear)
