Boney M - Night Flight To Venus
The same mixtapes that got me into Cardiacs also contained Night Flight To Venus/Rasputin nestled alongside The Fall, Zappa, Beefheart. It worked. Even though I was obviously very familiar with Rasputin, it made me hear it differently and enjoy it, rather than dismissing it as pop shite.
I was just thinking about those tapes today. I wish I still had them. The covers were hand drawn works of art, and the person who did them is now quite a collectible artist.
It meant I picked this up in a chazza for ten bob when I saw it.
Hard to fault the production on this, even though most of the album's not up my straße.
The gate-fold sleeve is a joy to behold.
