about

Here's the reissue of a DIY avant pop masterpiece for the first time ever on vinyl. Recorded by UK duo Amos and Sara, and originally put out on tape in 1981 on the cult label It's war boys. This album features members of a bunch of iconic British post punk bands such as The Homosexuals, Tesco Bombers and Sara Goes Pop.

Here is a small taster; www.youtube.com/watch?v=czJfa_qA3kA

Powered by a fine mix of determination and passion, Karl Jonas Winqvist (sing a song fighter) was obsessed by the track "In a hell bed" which he calls "a timeless DIY masterpiece" and somehow tracked down the mysterious mastermind Jim/Amos and amazingly he agreed to trust sing a song fighter and Gavin Maycroft's cassette label oma333 to bring this reissue project to life. Along the road we asked Lotti to recreate the tape’s original back cover with her typewriter, hired Timothy Stollenwerk (the expert ears behind many of the Mississippi Records releases) to re-master the tracks and brought aboard artist Peter Larsson to bring the album’s title back to life, design a sticker and help us piece it all together.

Reissue was released in 500 copies and it pretty much sold out the first weeks...

”Amos and Sara says: We are the innovators, don’t be fooled by second rate imitators. Produced by King Cobra into glorious mono.. definitely not made in a studio…”

”At last! This legendary tape release from these unsung geniuses and main movers and shakers of the early 80s DIY movement finally sees a vinyl release!”
JD Twitch (Optimo) – Glasgow, Scotland. 2017

”Amos aka L Voag, Aka Jim Whelton, and the mysterious Sara, made some of the best dream-logic pop music in the whole of squatland during the early eighties. With a predilection for defracting lounge music through a sound prism, splitting jazz rhythms into its constituent parts and reflecting them in a fairground mirror. The result is something genuinely unhinged but strangely addictive. Amos and Sara are comfortably my favourite Homosexuals offshoot”
