Wang Chung ORIG OZ Promo LP Points on the curve NM ’83 Geffen GHS4004 New wave Original OZ Promo LP released in 1983 on Geffen Records. Cat: GHS4004. Comes with printed lyric inner bag which has some light marks and is in Excellent condition.
If Japan's Tin Drum album of 1981 sought to redefine the similarities between Oriental melodic structure and Occidental music, then Wang Chung's Points on the Curve pushed the boundaries further toward the mainstream ("Even If You Dream," "Don't Be My Enemy"). It is baffling, then, that such an album should prove a more substantial hit in the States, where "True Love" was memorably adapted as a score to an incestuous rape scene on Miami Vice. Several tracks lend themselves fervently to film; the underlying menace of "Wait" reared its head in To Live and Die in L.A.. Far from the commercial tones of "Dance Hall Days," the song for which they are best known in the U.K., is the dramatic landscape of "Devoted Friends," a stark memo to a companion. Since the album's original release in 1984, it has seen many reissues with as many running orders, and although the sound is a little dated, its craftmanship still holds true.

Tracks: Dance hall days/ Wait/ True love/ The waves/ Look at me now/ Don’t let go/ Even if you dream/ Don’t be my enemy/ Devoted friends/ Talk it out.
