Notes
Unknown number of pressings. However a few hundred copies were given away as a free gift with "The Öther Söund" fanzine. Whether that was by arrangement with Factory, or if the fanzine simply raided record shops for the flexi is unclear. Some copies came in a black and white, number stamped, sleeve.

Edited 3 months agoUsed to drive by the old Eva-Tone Factory quite often back in the day! Definitely their number one release here, I think Vinyl Fever in Tampa used to give these out to anybody that asked! Number two on the flexi hit parade: "songs of the humpback whales"... never been able to get a copy of the "Straight talk about Herpes" flexi though...

In 1984 or so, I asked the clerk at VVV records in Dallas if he had ever seen this JD flexi that I'd heard about. The clerk, later known as MC 900 Foot Jesus, said "You know I saw one of those in the back that we never gave away", and he gave it to me!
"This is a free soundsheet", indeed!
Fantastic music, of course. Komakino ranks up there with Joy Division's best. -
