I've been trying for some time to complete my collection of DEVO albums, but
it seems that every time I think that I'm done, something new pops up in the
cut-out bins. So I'm posting a list of what I've got in the hopes that if
I'm missing something, someone'll tell me what it is, and perhaps where to
get it.
Albums
------
Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are DEVO!
Duty Now for the Future
Freedom of Choice
Devo Live
New Traditionalists
oh, no! it's DEVO
Shout
Non-Albums
----------
Peek-A-Boo! (12" Single)
Theme From Doctor Detroit (12" Single)
Here to Go/Shout (12" Single)
My motive in collecting these is to get all the Devo songs available, but not
necessarily every appearance by Devo on vinyl. Can anyone supply me with
anything I've missed?
BTW: There was a query posted a while back about the E-Z Listening Muzak
Cassettes available from Club Devo. I don't have either of them, but on the
"Here to Go/Shout" 12" single, they included the Muzak version of Shout, which
I am listening to right now, and it is absolutely HILARIOUS. This is quite
possibly the best piece of musical satire I have ever heard -- it is in every
way Muzak. I'm sending off for the cassettes tomorrow. (Hey, at $5 a pop, and
with 10 songs/cassette, how can ya lose?)

[ERNIE LONGMIRE] How about the six song EP from Stiff (British) that contained the two original Booji Boy singles (Jocko Homo/Mongoloid, Satisfaction/Sloppy) plus the original Stiff single Be Stiff b/w Social Fools? I think it was called Be Stiff, but I'm not sure. I have the original Booji Boy Records single of Jocko Homo/Mongoloid, and the songs are rather different: Eno made them leave out the "rhyme that ends in a riddle" from the album version of Jocko Homo. It's on the original single and they DO include it when performing live. > BTW: There was a query posted a while back about the E-Z Listening Muzak > Cassettes available from Club Devo.

Whip It) as a prelude to the concerts over the house PA before the shows began. -- Otology recapitulates phonology. Rich Rosen ihnp4!pyuxd!rlr
