LP - Memluks - Partida - Original 1982 Pressing
Still sealed. Mint, unplayed 1982 pressing.
All copies have a slight storage warp, but are guaranteed to play with out any issues. Storage warp on all copies that have been opened does not affect play (DNAP).
Experimental, yet occasionally danceable Post-Punk from Oklahoma City circa 1981/1982! If you've ever wondered what Pere Ubu would sound like with more Roxy Music flavor...here's the answer. Highly recommended!

Here are some reviews from Discogs:
"Wow, this a true piece of art. It’s hard to pin it down a specific genre. First song has some piano and sax which didn’t grab me at first, but after a few listens the song quickly becomes infectious. There are some different flavors on this record. Definitely has some no wave elements with the jangling guitar. Also some uptempo dub like bass lines with syncopated and tribal drum beats. I would say P.I.L. meets Pere Ubu meets The Contortions. Also somewhat musically comparable to Fashion-Product Perfect if you’re familiar with that record. I purchased this at Permanent Records (Los Angeles) by recommendation of Lance. I believe he has some more copies available." - Minimal-Man
"Oklahoma band with some sort of Flaming Lips connection. Imagine an Embarrassment influenced more by The Contortions than Josef K...." - djpose
