The Uncle of the Boot

1983

The cover art was drawn by Ben's half-brother Daniel, and showed Ben operating a tape echo machine.

The original price was 11DM. Selling on Gemm (autumn 2005) at $95.

Mastering and design by Ben. I do not think I have ever owned a copy. The third and last collection we released. I always considered it a kind of sampler like Sinclair's Luck. GG
