Faction - Faction (single, 1981)

For this blog users, the history of the band and of this single is already known. After the interest manifested by Grace Jones in re-recording the track Faction appeared on the band’s extended ep, Hillon and Redmond decided to play about the track at Amazon studio, with the collaboration of friends Joe Musker and Pete Wylie. Eventually they came up with version suitable for a single release.

BLOG POLICY

All recordings are out of print to the best of my knowledge (hence the low quality of the audio files, being for the most part vinyl or cassette rip)), and thus are not diverting earnings from the artists. In fact the purpose of the blog is the opposite: to stir up interest in the artists of this particular period of time. However, if you are the copyright holder and want a recording removed, let me know and I will do so. Recordings are provided for review and evaluation purposes only; if you can find a real copy, buy one! Thank you for visiting. Mij
