Dance of the Gecko b/w El Techno

One of the seminal works from the genre to become known as pop punk, the Descendents’ Milo Goes to College arrived in the year 1982 as most of the members of the band were just finishing high school. They began by writing catchy, hummable melodies about girls, parents, and food, among other things. Despite their unabashedly juvenile lyrical approach, they played with a blistering intensity rivaling any of the bands in the burgeoning hardcore crowd that they fell in with. This winning formula has carried the group for decades, as their influence has inspired countless followers (some becoming far more famous) in their wake. Now, 43 years later, Descendents are reclaiming and reissuing the album that started it all.

Vinyl inclues 8.5x11" lyric insert.

[Funkadelic Album T-Shirts Available Here] 

Released in 1970, Funkadelic’s self-titled debut was a radical collision of psychedelic rock, gospel, blues, and soul. The record arrived as a chaotic, genre-defying statement that redefined the possibilities of music. Where Motown aimed for polish and crossover appeal, Funkadelic dove headfirst into distortion, improvisation, and spiritual ambiguity, offering a sound as gritty and unpredictable as the era itself. Backed by a ferocious young band — including Eddie Hazel, Billy Bass Nelson, Tawl Ross, Tiki Fulwood, and Mickey Atkins — the album rejected convention in favor of raw groove and existential noise.

As part of Org Music’s Westbound Records reissue series, this edition restores the album’s full cosmic impact across multiple formats. The all analog double LP, mastered at 45RPM directly from tape by Dave Gardner at DSG Mastering, offers the highest fidelity to date. Gardner and restoration specialist Catherine Vericolli archived and restored the original master tapes at 54 Sound Studios in Ferndale, Michigan, with assistance from in-house engineer Nick King. Read more about that process here.  A single LP edition, cut from high-resolution tape transfers, is also available, alongside CD, cassette, and digital formats.

The release will be distributed worldwide.

Tracklist:

1. Mommy, What’s a Funkadelic?
2. I Bet You
3. Music For My Mother
4. I Got a Thing, You Got a Thing, Everybody’s Got a Thing

7. What is Soul
