Single UK 1980 on Base Records label
Electronic (New Wave, Minimal)
The picture sleeve is a stapled xerox-copy of simple nature. The lyric-sheet insert is a cheap xerox-copy also. The below review is very euphemistic. This is amateurish, lo-fi electronic music of cheapest means. "One-man band founded by former Essential Logic bass player Mark Turner. As Base he made his vinyl debut with these three experimental tracks recorded at the end of 1979 and released on February 22, 1980, on his own indie label. A worthy D.I.Y. 7” which includes VIOLENT DEATH and FRENCHMEN – two remarkable electronic sketches in the vein of early Human League – and the tortured low-fi ONE-WAY GIRL, with echoed vocals and noise-guitar. Picture sleeve is dated 1979; recorded in mono; all copies include an insert." (taken from: 45 Revolution Vol.1 by Mario Panciera)
