X-Ray Spex - Obsessed With You (The Early Years)

Official release of the first X-Ray Spex demos from their early days. Think of them as the sketches for Germ Free Adolescents. Featuring the earliest versions of “Oh Bondage, Up Yours!” and “I’m A Cliché.” Recorded in the unlikely year of 1977… it captures the raw, instinctive power of a band that seemed to arrive fully formed despite their youth. Most of the recordings feature the original saxophonist Lora Logic. And Poly Styrene’s vocals are iconic. Where would Bikini Kill be without the influence of X-Ray Spex?
