This rare promo single from California’s power-pop pioneers The Records features their melodic ode “Hearts in Her Eyes,” blending crisp guitar harmonies and heartfelt vocals that echo the energy of the late-'70s new-wave scene. Originally released in 1980 on Virgin Records, the track captures the transitional spirit of post-punk Britain even as it resonated across the Atlantic in American indie circles. This VG+ promo pressing, with its mono/stereo labeling and promo-only sleeve, stands as a snapshot of the era’s DIY promotional culture and the DIY spirit of college radio.
