The record
Title: Dead Or Alive – Sophisticated Boom Boom
Year/Genre: 1984, New Wave
Matrix #: PE 39274
Condition: VG+ light marks, Plays flawless
Description: Formed in Liverpool, Dead or Alive emerged from the UK’s post-punk and club scenes, led by the flamboyant Pete Burns. Sophisticated Boom Boom, their debut album, was released in 1984 and leaned heavily into gothic-tinged new wave before the band embraced the high-energy dance-pop style that later made them famous. Recorded during a transitional period in British pop, it captures the blend of underground club aesthetics and mainstream ambition that defined early ’80s synth-driven music. For collectors, it represents the roots of a band that would soon leave a major mark on international pop.
Price Suggestions:
NM: $20–$25

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
