The debut (and only) album that this Chicago based rock band, Combo Audio, ever released but although they don't appear to have released very much material over their short 6 years of performing, they did a lot of live work and appeared with other 80's iconic bands including Talking Heads, U2, Duran Duran, The Tubes, INXS, Sparks, The Busboys, Berlin, Stray Cats and Billy Idol.
Members were:
John Kellogg - vocals, guitars, keyboards, effects, percussion
Rick Neuhaus - drums, percussion, electronic percussion, programming
Angus Thomas - backing vocals, basses, bass pedals effects
Combo Audio - Self Titled
EMI America
Cat# DLP-19005
USA release
Industry only promotional copy - gold stamped with a Festival catalogue number L 30781.1 although I cannot find that this catalogue number was ever used.
Cover is in very good condition, no tears, no writing, no seam splits although I can see some light edge wear from handling.
New inner plastic sleeves
Vinyl is in very good condition, visually inspected under a bright white halogen light source and I can see a couple of very light ~ light scratches on each side. Just visually inspecting a record is not good enough so I then played the ENTIRE album, every track, and there are no significant issues with surface noise or click/pops
Outer protective plastic sleeve
Tracks: Romanticide, Military English, Hi-Fidelity Situations, Shadow Occupations
