Randy Pie – Fast/Forward (LP, 1977, US, Polydor PD-1-6113, Pitman Pressing)

Why This Record Matters
Randy Pie were a German rock and funk band, and Fast/Forward captures their move toward a punchier mix of rock, pop, and disco. The album features Peter French on lead vocals and Frank Diez on guitar, with songs like “Hijacked,” “Stand Up,” and “Hot Afternoon” showing the band’s polished late-’70s sound.

Collector Note
This 1977 US Polydor edition is the Pitman pressing, identified by the supplied “CP” runout markings. It’s also a late-career Randy Pie album, made after Peter French—known for his work with Cactus and Atomic Rooster—joined the group; producer Spencer Proffer helped steer the sessions toward a more mainstream rock sound.
