The Normal : Warm Leatherette

One off single released originally in 1978 and the first ever record on the Mute label .
The Normal were Daniel Miller (a film student at the time) who founded and now runs Mute and Novamute.
This was very Kraftwerk influenced and although very dark in subject ( reading the J.G. Ballard novel "Crash" led him to write this ) it remains quirky with an underlying humour.
Warm leatherette was later recorded by Grace Jones.
