Greetings!
For your consideration: A rare 1983 Elektra 'E' Red Label Peter Schilling, "Major Tom (Coming Home)" vinyl record, Super 12, 4 mix, USA promo. The 4 mixes include:
1.English Version
2.German Version
3.Special Extended Version
4.Instrumental Version. While numerous new wave artists in the early
'80s tried to imitate David Bowie, Peter Schilling went a step further.
In 1983, Schilling released "Major Tom (Coming Home)," a synth pop
retelling of Bowie's 1969 classic "Space Oddity." It became Schilling's
first and only entry in the U.S. charts, a song that eventually
stigmatized him as a one-hit wonder in America. The single
"Major Tom (Coming Home)" wasn't just popular in the U.S., it was a
worldwide smash. The record sleeve and vinyl are both in NM condition and the cover contains the promo punch in the top right corner.
