Edition of 400 copies. Presented in a hand-made silk-screen printed cover sleeve. It includes a leaflet with complete biography of the band. Coloured transparent blue vinyl.
Michael started writing lyrics and performing vocals as both John and Leona were mic shy and thought they looked better behind the keyboards. Ten months after they started writing together the relationship between the three became stressed due to musical differences as Michael wanted a more commercial sound that people could relate to and John & Leona wanted to make abstract noise tracks. So they parted ways and Michael set about finding a new band.
This took time and nothing was really working out until a chance meeting in a nightclub November 1980 when he was introduced to Denis Haines who at the time was working with Gary Numan as his keyboard player during the recording of 'Telekon' they talked for hours and spoke of collaborating on a track or two. The following week Michael played Denis some of the demo tracks that he'd written for Oblong Mauve and one track TransDance stood out (there are no copies of these demo's) Denis and Michael worked closely together and they wrote a number of backing tracks. One of these was the now famous farewell song from Gary Numan to his band Tubeway Army, 'Love needs no disguise' In return for this backing track Denis gave Michael studio time to develop 'TransDance'.
The first version of TransDance was recorded in Late Spring 1981 at Ridge Farm studio in Surrey owned by rocker Rick Parfitt of Status Quo and within the week after the recording was finished Michael had a recording deal with GC Recordings. This mix of TransDance was pressed onto a white label GC1 and was sent to clubs around Britain and Europe, the reaction to the track was strongest in Germany, Holland and France. A few were sent to the U.S.A and got a good reaction on the New York club circuit.This GC1 white label is now extremely rare and has been know to fetch up £600 on such sites as Ebay...
