Orchestra
>(1978) and Solid State Survivor (1979).  I like Naughty Boys (1983) as
well,
>but it's a bit closer to pop than proto-techno...  I've got reviews up on


also the multiplies lp from `1980,as far as 12" goes
computer games (full length vrsn) a&m disco sp12702
behind the mask(technopolis edit vrsn)  a&m disco sp 17129
tighten up(extended mix)   a&m disco sp 13126

all 3 are diffrent versions to the lp's so you might want them as well
