Reviews
I believe the 1st press from '81 has blue TV screens while the 2nd press from '83 has the red ones. the labels are very different as well with the 1st press only having basic info, songs, band, speed, etc... and the 2nd press having all the info, producer, engineer, writing credits, label address, etc... The sleeves are identical otherwise, both mine were purchased sealed so the sleeves weren't swapped.
Z-ROCKS, from Houston, Texas, created cool, classy, new-wave power pop in the early '80s (1979-1986) and toured America with some of the biggest acts of their day (U2, Duran Duran). Z-ROCKS recorded and released this LP and got national airplay on the hit song "The Teacher's A Punk". They had another group of songs ready to release for the second LP, however the unreleased material was not released. The track “Real World” appeared on a Teenline comp.
