In Outer Space

Twelfth career album, and the first to be produced by brothers Ron and Russell Mael. ‘Sparks In Outer Space’ was, according to Russell, designed to be ‘more danceable, more electronic’ - therefore more in the style of the genre-defining 1979 release ‘No.1 In Heaven’. A Number 88 Billboard chart hit. Features singer-guitarist Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Gos, who sings two songs, including ‘Cool Places’ - Sparks' biggest ever American hit single when it reached No.49 in April 1983. Also includes the single 'I Wish I Looked A Little Better'. 5 Bonus tracks include two single versions plus three 12 Inch Mixes. Booklet with authoritative and extensive liner notes written by respected Record Collector journalist Michael Heatley. Expertly remastered – superb sound - top quality reproduction. The best in the business!
