Punkadelic

~ Release by Inner City Unit (see all versions of this release, 2 available)

Annotation

Not a proper album, but a compilation of bits and pieces, demos etc.. the versions of Space Invaders and Polyethlene are from a session ICU did for Polydor records which actually yielded the offer of a recording contract.. ..no "actual money" though..

All the tracks on this album are previously unreleased versions of ICU standards.. except the disco trilogy which was a project of Fred and Trevs from the late 70's.. "Disco Tango" why wasn't that song entered into the Eurovision Song Contest?
