Dr. Sex - Pleasure and the Beast

Robert Pereno and Lowri-Ann Richards formed Pleasure and the Beast. They only recorded two singles during their short career. Their debut single was released in 1983. It was 'Dr. Sex', an upbeat new wave track with sinister edges. The video for this song appeared on music television regularly, and that's how I found about it circa 1984.

It took me fifteen years to see a copy of the single - and of course I bought it when I did. It turned up during a record fair. I never saw the single before or after. It can be considered quite a rarity, then.

My collection: 7" single no. 3158
Found: Record fair, Utrecht, November 27, 1999
Cost: 2 guilders
Tracks: 'Dr. Sex' / 'Snake'
