A Low-Threshold Spectacular

You’ll Spec! You’ll Synth! You’ll Kiss $1.98 Goodbye!

(At least, I did.) This is pretty competent and probably a whole lot more work in 1987 than it would have been even five years later.

My guess is this, regarding the credited artist’s name, "Star Inc": One of the composers’ credits lists an “E Starink.” However, the CD-Text spells it "Startink."  Hmmm …

This album is presented two ways—with the tracks of the two medleys ripped individually.  Then with the two medleys ripped as single tracks, to preserve the flow.
