Sparks, "This Town Ain't Big Enough for the Both of Us"

KOSMO's VINYL of the Week:
This week it's London 1974 in the company of two Californian brothers for Sparks UK debut "This Town Ain't Big Enough for the Both of Us" on Island Records...

"Although Sparks are essentially a duo they were sold as a five-piece glam rock band by the same label that had brought us Roxy Music. The single came first but riding hard on its heels was the stylishly packaged album "Kimono my House", which I have not heard in perhaps 40 years. The single remains a teenage targeted classic and was produced by Muff Winwood. I knew Muff for many years as a record company executive at CBS/Sony and to this day it remains a mystery to me how he produced such a great 45 ?" - KV
