Debut Solo Album on 180g Double Vinyl LP!

Half-Speed Mastered by MIles Showell at Abbey Road Studios from the Original Pre-Production Tapes!

Pressed on Crystal Clear Vinyl in a Gatefold Lentincular Sleeve!

Debbie Harry was a household name back in the late '70s/early '80s through her work with Blondie. For her first solo album she teamed up with Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards of CHIC to produce an album fusing funk, rock, disco and new wave. Their innovative production pre-dated their work with David Bowie and Madonna. Released in 1981, KooKoo went on to be a gold-selling album selling half a million copies in America alone. The album contained two hit singles, "Backfired" and "The Jam Was Moving." The iconic sleeve design by Swiss artist H.R. Giger, known for his work on the Alien movie, has been restored and represented here as a limited edition lenticular sleeve design showing Debbie with and without Giger's art. The audio for this release has been mastered from the original pre-production tapes and cut at half-speed by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios. Includes five bonus tracks not on the original pressing.
