Okay, either I’m extremely daft, or my short-term memory is completely shot! I’ve had this (ahem) “Limited Edition 4 Track 12” Featuring Daddy-O Remix + Colour ‘Flood’ Poster” (phew) of the gonna-break-your-head-it’s-so-damned-catchy single, Istanbul (Not Constantinople) by a personal favorite, They Might Be Giants for more years than I’m willing to admit. Fact.
Okay? So what, you ask. Well, upon perusing my collecting looking for something to catch my ear, I noticed this nice little sticker indicating how this 12” originally came with a poster. Remember when posters were a thing? Shamefully, I do too. Anywho, not thinking much about it, I nabbed it and offered a whimsical yet vaguely hopeful gander to confirm what I already knew… there would be no poster. Imagine my jaw-dropping surprise when, there was, in fact, a “Colour ‘Flood’ Poster!” It was almost like rediscovering a thumb! Okay, maybe not that monumental, but now all I have to do is convince my GF that our apartment needs, no, DESERVES a Colour ‘Flood’ Poster. My money says the poster will stay right where it is.
Great! Now I’m on a They Might Be Giants fix!
On a side note, if you play the beginning of Flood at 45rpm, the intro sounds like something straight out of Munchkin Land. Just sayin’.
The Prudent Groove 
I think I recall hearing the Bing Crosby / Ella Fitzgerald version many years ago. Sort of a geopolitcal novelty song, eh?
(Get the poster framed and it’ll be a shoe-in for the apartment. Girls don’t like blue-tack)
“Girls don’t like blue-tack” That’s brilliant! Should be on a bumper sticker!
Yep, all you you need to do now is to put on Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention LP “We’re Only In It For The Money” at 45 RPM and I think you’ll find the other side of Munchkin Land.
LOL! I will try this!
I remember one of those tracks was engineered with some insane bass. I bet we played that one with the car audio rig I had setup in our apartment and the cops came, LOL 😛
Ha! I remember that setup! That was when you slept on those foam mattresses in the living room! Bygone days!
