The worker - Fischer Z

Of course I already own a copy of Fischer Z's 'The Worker' - I bought it 30 years ago! - but this picture disc was just too beautiful to pass up. It's so beautiful, in fact, that there is even a movie of it on YouTube.

Fischer Z continues to tour and record albums, the most recent being 'Swimming in thunderstorms', released earlier this year. Their earliest work remains the best, in my humble opinion.

My collection: 7" single no. 6176
Found: Record fair, Amsterdam, September 21, 2019
Cost: 1 euro
Tracks: 'The worker' / 'Kitten curry'

    'Marliese' Earlier you said: "In the Netherlands, it reached number 31" - in wikipedia they say NL - #5 "Marliese" was #1 in the portuguese singles chart. "The Worker" and "So Long" was always successful in PT.

    Something went wrong in Wikipedia - 'Marliese' peaked at number 31, and stayed 5 weeks in the Dutch Top 40. I guess someone got confused.
