Search - O Level :: 1977 - 1980 Day in the Life of Gilbert & George

A complete collection of the early works of former Television Personality (and future leader of The Times) Edward Ball, including his chums Daniel Treacy and Joseph Foster. Recording ground breaking DIY singles together as the TV Personalities, O Level, and the Teenage Filmstars in the late '70s, this triumvirate of pop entrepreneurs later launched or cofounded the Whaam!, Artpop!, Creation and Revola labels - quite literally inventing a syndicate of sound and ideas that reverberated gently throughout the '80s, violently throughout the '90s and inescapably today. Including the original released recordings of the 'We Love Malcolm' EP as O Level, the Teenage Filmstars singles 'Cloud Over Liverpool' and 'I Helped Patrick McGoohan Escape', this Artpop! package doesn't disappoint, reissuing the original Revola compilation from 1992, plus previously unavailable extra tracks. Also containing extensive recording documentation, quotes from all involved and a plethora of pictures. Rev-Ola. 2007.
