Essential Logic Extended Play Volume I Volume Ii Indie Exclusive Neon Barbie Be Happy Pink Vinyl

Lora Logic was unexpectedly ousted from her first band X-Ray Spex before the recording of their debut studio album 'Germ Free Adolescents' in 1977. Undeterred, Lora went on to form and front the post-punk band Essential Logic. With trademark angular sax lines and her unmistakable vocal stylings, she went on to create some of the most liberating and exciting music of the early post-punk era, not only as Essential Logic, but also as a solo artist and as the go to sax moonlighter for other artists, includin the Stranglers, the Raincoats, Swell Maps and Red Crayola amongst others before her departure from the music industry in 1983. Lora would return from her musical hiatus in 1996 for the recording of the X-Ray Spex sophomore album 'Conscious Consumer' before taking a further leave of absence until 2021 when she returned to the studio to collaborate with fellow punk pioneers including Martin Muscatt, Dave Farren (Bad Manners) and Gary Valentine (Blondie) for the recording of what would become two new Essential Logic EP's. Released in the dawn of a new technological era the recordings found a limited release via CD mailorder and early streaming sites before their inclusion on the 2003 Kill Rockstars compilation 'Fanfare in the Garden' CD release, solidifying the tracks significance as fan favourites amongst her earlier works. Essential Logic returned in 2022 with the new studio album 'Land of Kali' and remix album 'Rekalibrated' in 2024. This release presents both EP's 1 & 2 in their entirety and original sequence, remastered and available for the first time as a standalone vinyl release.
