Player [1] - Game Over


Space Invaders/We're All Players/Under Control/My Babe Is A Cool Player/Fire/Space Suite/Red On The Bottom Line/Microprocessor/Play Me/Game Over



 Player 1 was the brainchild of producers Russell Dunlop and Bruce Brown the two released a single about the game Space Invaders called "Space Invaders" in 1980 it reached #3 nationally and stayed in the charts for 5 months they then released the album "Game Over".
 The album in parts reminds me of Pink Floyd and most of the tracks are Synth. based and typically 80's sounding but there are a couple of tracks on here that almost rock out "We're All Players" and "Fire".
