about

Dit is een compilatie van twee democassettes. Op de A-kant staan vijf tracks die in mei 1982 zijn opgenomen in de Mystic Flowerbox (Aalsmeer). De muziek van Jerry Turner (zang, mini-keyboard), Ad Bosters (gitaar), Leo Loww (bas) en Jaap Blok (drums) roept die dagen een Velvet Underground gevoel op.

Op de B-kant nummers, die een maand later zijn opgenomen in de Conrad Studio (Amsterdam). Met vijfde bandlid Ed Zirkzee (saxofoon) speelt Moscow Tops aanstekelijke 'modern pop music'.

Omdat we niet over de originele mastertapes beschikken, is de muziek van cassette gedigitaliseerd. Wout de Kruif heeft de nummers vervolgens geremasterd. De originele demo's van Moscow Tops zijn in zeer beperkte aantallen gekopieerd; deze heruitgave is gelimiteerd tot 75 genummerde cassettebandjes.
