Notes

The first release on the label. This was actually conceived and released before “Moon Records” was created. The label assigned to this release was “Ice Bear Records” in honour of Vicky Rose’s Father who had fronted the money for the pressing.

With thanks to: Joe Neives, Marek Bireline, Pat Kennedy, Steve Messner, Jake, Gene Sayet, Matrix, Studio Rehearsal Studio, Scott Jarvis* (producer of Beastie Boys “Cookie Puss” EP), Wayne Kramer, Stanley Turpentine* (A.K.A, Joe Jackson), Henry Beck, Aid MacSpade, Richie Thomas and L.E.S.R., Toby Ariana.

There is a “Side 1” and a “Side A” ?
The artist Tanino Liberatore signed 40 copies when originally pressed in 1984.

In 2013 a stack of old original sleeves were sorted through and 500 mint sleeves were picked to be used to house a new pressing of the 7inch. The audio was captured from a clean vinyl rip, Adobe Audition was utilized to clean, edit and master the audio for a new manufactured run of records. These were manufactured through JumpUp Records.
