OMD - Bauhaus Staircase - October 2023 Release

Just ordered the vinyl and CD. It is also available in cassette. I listened to snippets of the album on Spotify Premium, today.

Track 2 of the album:


Nando.

OMD was an unusual band, their fourth album really SUCKED OUT LOUD, but changed a bit afterward. I have their first four LPs and a few 12” remixes. I saw them live in DC- two guys on stage, a big reel deck, a “toaster” Macintosh on a table. One guy would load floppies into the Mac while the other sang. I suppose they were highly MIDI oriented.

Discogs also shows an entry for open reel tape. The only other “full album” cover that I know of is Camper Van Beethoven’s cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Tusk.”

the whole "Let It Be" album covered by Laibach comes to mind as well... and it's definitely a weird album, being by Laibach, with crazy music arrangements and that impossible to forget lead voice timbre!
I'd say you have to give it a try. ;)

Yeah, but it's weird. How's it make any money? Lots of great old top 40 tunes, Joe Cocker, Beatles, Carpenters, Heart, etc. Very little DJ interruptions, in Spanish. Can't say I've ever heard a sales ad. Granted I don't understand the DJ, because of the language, but how do they make $ to operate?
Locally in Ohio, IHeartRadio has taken over so many stations and it's too damn commercialized.
