Love an Adventure
album by Pseudo Echo
Love an Adventure is the second studio album by Australian new wave band Pseudo Echo, released in 1985 by EMI Australia. The album peaked at No. 14 in Australia and produced three Australian top twenty singles, including "Don’t Go", which peaked at No. 4. In 1986, the album was reissued to include the hit single "Funky Town".
In 1987, the album was released for the first time in North America with an alternate track listing, replacing three tracks on the original Australian release with re-recordings of three tracks originally featured on their previous album (making it a compilation of sorts). While not included on initial pressings of the North American version, "Funky Town" was quickly added to later editions, replacing a fourth track ("Don't Go") from the Australian version.
Background
Following the success of Autumnal Park, Pseudo Echo returned to the studio in 1985, with an altered line up. Tony Lugton and Anthony Argiro both left and joined other bands (though Argiro is credited as drummer on the original release). They were replaced by brothers James Leigh and Vince Leigh (aka Vincent Dingli).
