42 Years Ago: THE FALL release Bingo-Master's Break-Out!

Nobody liked it. It was... out of tune and that. It was good. Stark, sort of.

THE FALL released their first EP, Bingo-Master's Break-Out!, on this day in 1978 through Miles Copeland's Step-Forward Records.

Songs were recorded in November 1977, financed by BUZZCOCKS manager Richard Boon, but remained unreleased for nine months. Boon originally intended to release the EP through his New Hormones label.
