Wow, that is a lot indeed. I thought maybe 5-7 or so existed, but never asked myself the question. Good to see the list starts with the FU's. But it's not the best bunch of artists to share a list with

I listened to a bit and I'll say this... it's not cause it's very good.

I understand if you think it's bad because that's not your kind of music, but it's considered a pretty classic record for its genre. Still looking for the violin cover of Flex Your Head on other records. I've seen a few classical records with this stock art.

I always remember getting Flex Your Head in the mail(it was a long time ago), opening it an thinking..have I been sent the right record? flipping the cover over..yeah, thats more like it..did the wheatfield design get reused a lot aswell? There was an article in Maxrnr when someone first discovered flex your head was a N.R.P. stock cover designed mostly for gospel records..some of the alternate designs were "Praying Hands",etc. other records that share the same design..DKS plastic surgery disasters lp and society dog ep. Arragontar agitator/wretched 2nd/carnivore 2nd lp- all shared the "soldiers in radiation suits in front of missiles" pic

I found this about the "Still Loving You" record, nice story which perhaps adds to the value :
"Twilight started out as a one-man-band project by a fellow named Lawrence Ross. The first album, Still Loving You, features Ross singing and playing just about every instrument, from drums to keys, guitar, bass and horns. Amazingly, the whole record was made in the space of one week in 1981, with Ross heading straight to the studio at the end of his night shift at a General Mills cereal factory and laying down entire multi-tracked songs in as little as an hour. In addition to being an unbelievably gifted instrumentalist and studio genius, Ross was clearly a connoisseur of soul, funk and disco music. The album shifts effortlessly between different styles, opening with the upbeat and danceable horns and handclaps of "Play My Game," eventually moving on to the breezy "Scorpittiarus," which sounds like some Italian film composer’s interpretation of bossa nova. "We’ll Be Special" has amazing Curtis Mayfield-esque harmonies, and "Give Love A Try" and a number of other tracks are reminiscent of Roy Ayers.
If you've ever recorded in a decent studio with a HC band (or whatever style), you probably know that time really flies in there. A completed track with all those instruments, and all vocals in 1 hour, by one dude......impressive!

Just saw the F.U.'s a month or so ago in a small venue, and was blasted away. So good, tight and with the right spirit.
