I just read Erick Bradshaw's great Bandcamp article on Caroline True Records (dated November 20, 2025). There was a lot to like, but Henry Badowski's "Life Is A Grand" reissue stood out. Bradshaw's article mentions Gary Numan, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), Simple Minds, Kraftwerk and Syd Barrett. The cover and music also remind me a bit of Nick Nicely.
Henry Badowski (England) was associated with a lot of musicians/bands before releasing "Life Is A Grand" (1981, A&M and I.R.S.): Alternative T.V., The Damned (actually an off-shoot of the band called The Doomed), The Good Missionaries and Wreckless Eric.
