Difference between revisions of "Russian Flexis"

Revision as of 00:09, 29 June 2013

Many flexidiscs were produced by the fake Russian label BudKon.

Before 1989, very few records were allowed into Soviet Russia, so there was quite a demand on the black market.
And for a few short years, this label produced thousands of flexis from ABBA to Madonna, The Stranglers, Frank Zappa,
and of course - The Sisters.

These records are low quality recordings, and low quality pressings, and materially are worth next to nothing.
To an avid collector, though, very few of the same song were ever made, and for a completist collector of
the Sisters' bootlegs, they are treasures. If you want to know more about the phenomenon of flexi discs
in general, please check this article at Wikipedia...
