Телевизор (Televizor)- Шествие Рыб LP

Just received a request on Facebook to cover some of the Russian synth greats, so what better place to start than the debut album from Телевизор (translation- Televizor). While the band was conceived in 1984 in Leningrad, it took four years for their debut to appear. The LP was released on Мелодия records, which formed in 1964 and folded briefly when the USSR collapsed.

Kind of hard to classify this one properly, as it jumps styles on every track. If anything, it reminds me a bit of Chrisma's Chinese Restuarant- a true hybrid that's tough to pin down, but I'll let you all decide for yourselves! Here's the info and download link:
