From Wikipedia:  The Saints are an Australian rock band, which formed in Brisbane in 1974 as punk rockers. Founders were Chris Bailey (singer-songwriter, later guitarist), Ivor Hay (drummer), and Ed Kuepper (guitarist-songwriter). Alongside mainstay Bailey, the group has had numerous line-ups. In 1975, contemporaneous with United States' Ramones, The Saints were employing the fast tempos, raucous vocals and "buzz saw" guitar that characterised early punk rock. With their debut single, "(I'm) Stranded," in September 1976, they became the first punk band outside the US to release a record, ahead of better-known acts including the Sex Pistols and The Clash. They are one of the first and most influential groups of the genre, according to Bob Geldof, "Rock music in the seventies was changed by three bands—the Sex Pistols, the Ramones and The Saints."

(I'm) Stranded is the debut album by Australian punk rock group The Saints which was released by EMI on 21 February 1977. Their debut single, "(I'm) Stranded", was issued ahead of the album in September 1976, which Sounds magazine's reviewer, Jonh Ingham, declared was the "Single of this and every week." "Erotic Neurotic" was the second single, which was released in May 1977 and the group relocated to the United Kingdom. In June, bass guitarist Alasdair "Algy" Ward replaced Bradshaw and the group issued a single, "This Perfect Day" in July, which peaked in the Top 40 on the UK Singles Chart.

Eternally Yours is second album released by the group in 1978. For their follow up album (with Kuepper and Bailey in the producers chair) the band chose a bigger, more R&B-driven sound, including the addition of a horn section.  The original title for the album was to be International Robots and recording initially commenced at Wessex Studios.

The discs are in excellent condition, practically unplayed (I recorded to cassette for my listening pleasure).  The jackets are in great shape, although, as promo records, there are labeled as promo and have date stickers on them.  Sire Records did not label "promo" on the disc labels.  "Eternally Yours has a nice lyric sleeve too.   The LPs have mostly been sitting on a shelf in protective plastic sleeves for 30+ years.
