Man or Astroman were four college kids from Auburn, Alabama, USA who played some of the most pristinely crafted surf instrumentals since the 1960s. Formed by CoCo the Electronic Monkey Wizard on alternate universe bass, Birdstuff on traps, Star Crunch on guitar, and Dr. Delecto & his Invisible Vaportron on bass, the group released their first full-length album, Is it...Man or Astro-Man?, in 1993. The band found time to put out a new 45 record practically every other week in addition to full-length releases like 1994's Destroy All Astromen!, 1996's Experiment Zero and 1997's Live Transmissions from Uranus. The themes of the tunes usually run the gamut from spies to sci-fi. Dexter X later replaced Dr. Delecto, and Starcrunch left the band as well. The collection, Beyond the Black Hole, was issued in summer 2001 and featured three brand new tracks.

 

Touch And Go Records was started in Lansing, MI, by Tesco Vee and Dave Stimson in 1981 as an outgrowth of Touch And Go Zine, a fanzine the duo published. Their intent was to document their local hardcore punk scene. Necros (2) bassist Corey Rusk hooked up with Tesco to help run the label soon after it started and assumed full control after Vee moved to Washington, DC, in 1983. In 1987, Rusk moved the label to Chicago, IL, where Rusk and the label still reside, and over the years has issued records by influential bands like Jesus Lizard, The, Slint, Shellac, and Big Black.

 

Orange translucent vinyl!

Record is in excellent shape. Cover in great shape. Includes 2 sided spring/Summer 1997 Touch and Go Mail Order Catalog, in excellent shape.

 

This is from a personal collection. I was purchased new in the late 90s.

Take a look at my other stuff and follow me  because I’ll be posting more!
