Description

This is a very rare and one of the most obscure in my opinion UK MINIMAL SYNTH / NEW WAVE OF BRITISH HEAVY METAL / INDIE POP / TWEE / PUNK compilation entitled POINTS OF DEPARTURE from 1984, this is the ORIGINAL pressing. ORIGINAL PRESSING IN NEAR MINT CONDITION AND A MUST !!!. 
The album came on the private RAMBERT RECORDS which is also known for many obscure 7" PUNK / SYNTH / NWOBHM single releases, catalogue number NRT 252, and this album features many bands that never got to release any other products apart from the tracks on this compilation, and hence the only chance to get them will be this compilation, and believe me some of them are better then many of the single releases, or many other released singles, THESE TRACKS SHOULD BE COMPED on the MINIMAL SYNTH / NEW WAVE OF BRITISH HEAVY METAL compilations.
This copy comes with the DOUBLE SIDED INSERT but also comes with A UNIQUE HAND BILL FOR A 2 DAY FESTIVAL IN ESSEX IN 1984 FEATURING ALL THE BANDS ON THIS COMPILATION + OTHER HEADLINE BANDS SUCH AS: THE TRUTH / ROY HARPER / JOOLZ and JAKE BURNS BIG WHEEL !!! A UNIQUE ONE OFF ITEM !!!
