This extremely rare single-sided flexidisc is the only existing original physical example of the legendary Los Angeles power-pop / new wave group Elton Duck.  The group often performed at such venues as Madame Wong’s, the Troubadour and Club 88 where they were the unofficial house band playing power-pop rock and new wave music eventually opening for such acts as The Knack and The Motels.
 
As the 1980s opened, Elton Duck was signed to the Arista label and re-christened The Decoys. After several personal changes the official lineup was Mike McFadden (lead guitar and vocals), Mike Condello (rhythm guitar and vocals), Andy Robinson (Horsefeathers)(drums, dulcimer and vocals) and Michael Steele (Bangles) (bass and background vocals). They stepped into the studio with ex-Sparks guitarist Earle Mankey, producer and engineer of records by assorted acts such as the Dickies, 20/20, Elton John, The Beach Boys and Concrete Blonde.

Unfortunately, Arista execs shelved the album, and until only recently did it reappear some 30 years later as a CD from the surviving members.

The flexi-disc featured in this auction is the only single EVER officially released from the group prior to their disbanding. Very much sought-after among punk and new wave collectors and RARELY seen for sale.

It could be years before another copy surfaces for sale in any condition.  No reserve.  Good luck!

The Flexi-Disc in visually excellent condition, with small, superficial sleeve scuffs.  No bends.  Plays great with some light surface noise, as most Flexi-discs do.  The hand made cover is intact, has some paper wrinkles and edge bends, small tears where stapled together.  SEE SCANS.  As far as I know there were two different hand made covers.
