Ruth was the brainchild of Thierry Müller, a photographer and graphic artist from Paris who drew his inspiration from bands and artists like Brian Eno, Stockhausen, Pere Ubu, Neu, Velvet Underground and Kraftwerk. In the late ‘70s he began to work on Ruth, releasing the lone album Polaroïd/Roman/Photo in 1985.
The record sold just 50 copies, and was relegated to obscurity until the track Polaroïd/Roman/Photo started appearing on bootlegs and compilations in the early 2000s, slowly becoming the cult synthpop classic it is today. Now, the record - original copies of which regularly fetch over £300 on eBay - is being reissued on vinyl, together with a download code featuring six bonus tracks.
