Portion Control - Dining On The Fresh (tape, In Phaze, 1981), Surface And Be Seen (12", In Phaze, 1982) - no flexi...!




More early Portion Control! What a great synth pop and what a pity not more of it is officially re-released. 'Dining On The Fresh' is a really short cassette, only 10 minutes. It came with a flexi, but that one is bumped here, so I couldn't record it. I however scanned all the inserts, except the misplaced button, and the balloon which I never heard. 'Surface And Be Seen' was their first outing on vinyl and is still great too. Let me know if anyone has the flexi as a MP3, as I more than happy to replace this upload with a more complete version (433rpm@gmail.com).

  1. Much obliged! Some of the old Portion Control releases are actually good enough to compel me to turn them off.
