Artist:  Graduate  (Featuring Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal)

Title:  Acting My Age

Date:  1980

Art Direction By:  Tony Wattling Darrell

Notes:  This is a pre-Tears for Fears 10 inch from Curt and Roland.  A british import, this record has the boys exhibiting their poppy, ska roots and shows that they were fun before they got sensitive and serious.  The cover photo is priceless, what with their red Beatle boots and matching shirts and ties, why they're ready for the Sullivan show you bet.  As my wife (the Tears for Fears fan in the house) say, "they're so cute".  A nice collectors item.

Line Up:

Curt Smith: bass and vocals
Roland Orzabal: guitar, lead vocals
Steve Buck: keyboards and flute
Andy Marsden: drums
John Baker: guitar and vocals
