GIRLSCHOOL: Burning in the Heat (Slade cover) / Surrender 12″. 1983 SIGNED / Autographed by Kelly Johnson (R.I.P).

Description

This has a great production and is very cleverly done. I think it’s the most commercial record they’ve ever made. The beginning is rather like Bach but it quickly switches into a guitar riff similar to ‘You Really Got Me’ from the Kinks.
