April 20 street date. RECORD STORE DAY release. Blue vinyl Record Store Day edition of this classic album. Recorded in the first two months of 1975 at Rockfield studios (with some sessions also taking place at SARM studios in London), ‘Futurama’ was the second album by Be Bop Deluxe and the first to feature the line-up of Bill Nelson (vocals, guitars, keyboards), Charlie Tumahai (bass, vocals), and Simon Fox (drums). Produced by Roy Thomas Baker (who at the time was also working with Queen), ‘Futurama’ was an album of immense musical inventiveness and creativity and was a huge leap forward in creative terms for Bill Nelson. The album gained much praise thanks to Bill Nelson's composition skills and his highly innovative guitar playing. The album would see Be Bop Deluxe heralded as one of the most accomplished acts of 1975. This Record Store Day release features the Stephen W. Tayler mix of the album on vinyl for the first time.
