Formed as Lincoln Road Loonies in 1978 but soon they changed their name. Getting Jumpy is the one & only record by the Androidss from Christchurch on Ripper Records. The band consisted of Steve (vocals/guitar), Frankie (bass), Mark (keyboards), Neil & Mark (guitars), Eric (drums) and were named after Phillip K. Dick’s novel Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep? (did someone read that?). Three songs we have in this post, the third I added as a small bonus to show you what a great energetic live band they were. Auckland Tonight is undoubtedly their known piece and always gladly seen on numerous compilations. Sad news at the end: Steve died in 2009 and Eric in 2011, commemorate both while listening to this little nugget.
nice one
