Doug And The Slugs - Popaganda (1984) [Complete LP]

One Of Our Deleted Albums Series

Doug And The Slugs was a Vancouver, B.C. Based band which released its first album, Cognac And Bologna, in 1980.

Popaganda was Doug And The Slugs' 5th album. It was released in 1984 on A&M Records, catalogue number AMD 1003. Popaganda contained two songs which got radio play: Day By Day and Love Shines.

It's a good album but it has since been deleted from the A&M Records catalogue and, as far as I can tell, is currently only available as 2nd hand copies of the original LP's. Some tracks from the album are available on a Doug And The Slugs compilation CD: https://www.amazon.ca/Slugcology-101-...
