Software Sounds (on 45)

I snagged this record off eBay because I knew it had to at least be interesting... thought you all might get a kick out of it: http://yahozna.dyndns.org/scratch/softwaresounds/ (mp3 and raw wav available) It's entitled:'Software Sounds - "Music for the Computer Professional"' and is apparently the creation of a man named Laz Bouros (who apparently never made it as a rock star but is today an Executive Consultant, if the Internet is leading me true). There's no date anywhere on it, but it has to be from the early-mid 80s. It came with a small pamphlet describing the both the record and the record label, which I will transcribe for you: ------ The Company: Software Sounds is an independent Canadian record company dedicated to developing a new market in the record industry through the use of an innovative musical product. The Market: The millions of computer professionals who operate, program, design, and manage computer systems throughout Canada and the U.S. provide a dynamic yet untapped market for the music industry. The Products: "Computer Songs", in a soft rock format, with lyrics that capture the human struggle as well as the lighter side of the computer world, are the new musical products. The Writer: Laz Bouros, a computer consultant and composer, has spent many years working in the computer environment and has written many songs on a variety of themes. ------- Alas, music for "the millions of computer professionals" never caught on, perhaps it couldn't compete with Devo andKraftwerk?
