Item Description

Following the success of 2024's 50th celebrations for 'Kimono My House' and 'Propaganda' and a career-best No. 2 UK chart placing for latest studio album 'MAD', Demon are delighted to announce a suite of products celebrating the band's next two catalogue classics. Released in October 1976, after Ron and Russell had moved from the UK back to the US, 'Big Beat' left their established backing band behind, ditching the baroque stylings of Indiscreet for something all-together more back-to-basics, with the recording overseen by producer Rupert Holmes. Still three years away from topping the US chart with his single 'Escape (The Piña Colada Song)', 1976 also saw him contributing to Barbra Streisand's multi-million selling soundtrack to The Star Is Born. Quite where an energetic and muscular Sparks' collection that sat closer to the emerging Punk scene sits in all of this is open to debate. This limited edition of Big Beat is available on is available a two-sided picture disc featuring stylish black-and-white images from Richard Avedon.
