SKIDS - DAYS IN EUROPA

1979 UK 1st Pressing w Original Price Sticker & Insert + BONUS Scottish News 30th Anniversary Skids section.

Released in the autumn of 1979, Days in Europa represents a pivotal, highly sophisticated evolution for Skids. Shifting away from the raw art-punk of their debut, the album plunges headfirst into European-influenced synth-post-punk and art-rock, fueled by Bill Nelson’s sharp, ambient-focused production. With Stuart Adamson's soaring, layered guitar architecture driving memorable cuts like "Charade" and "Working for the Yankee Dollar," this original 1979 UK pressing on Virgin Records stands as a bold blueprint for the new wave and synth-pop explosion that would define the early 1980s.
