Hip indie pop 12" single on Medium Cool records from Brighton, England's The Popguns. Released 1989. Four tracks, but the 4th is just a repeat of the A-side, though it's not mentioned anywhere on the sleeve or label.














SUPERSTAR & PONY BOY CURTIS - SPLIT 7" (JIVE TURKEY, 1997) [US]

Superstar & Pony Boy Curtis - Split 7"
(Jive Turkey, 1997) [US]




An obscure split 7" record between emo groups Superstar and Pony Boy Curtis. The only proper release from each band. Also, this is not the Superstar from the UK that was ex-BMX Bandits. I did find an unreleased LP from Superstar on the internet that is pretty great. I don't know much about either band except they were both around in the mid-90s, both groups share someone named "Kip", and that I found this record for $1.00usd over ten years ago in the used bin.
