Listening notes

Released in 1979 on Plurex Records, "Poly Vinyl" is a two-sided single by The Mumbles, catalogued as PLUREX 006. The release sits within the genres of New Wave, Pop, and Rock, placing it among the considerable volume of material being issued under those broadly applied labels during that period.

The A-side, "Poly Vinyl," runs three minutes and fifty-eight seconds. The B-side, "Collision," is the longer of the two tracks at four minutes and thirty-five seconds. Together they account for just under nine minutes of recorded material across the two sides of the record.

Plurex Records, identified here by the catalog prefix PLUREX, issued this as its sixth catalogued release, as indicated by the suffix 006. Beyond what the catalog number itself suggests about sequencing within the label's output, no further information about Plurex Records is drawn upon here.

The Mumbles, styled with a definite article, are credited as the performing artist. No personnel details are available within the verified facts for this entry, and none have been supplied here.

As a format, the standard vinyl single remained a primary vehicle for New Wave acts in 1979, and this release conforms to that pattern in its structure, if not necessarily in any other respect that can be confirmed from the available record. The genre designations — New Wave, Pop, and Rock — reflect the kind of overlapping classifications commonly applied during the era, though what they mean specifically in relation to The Mumbles or these two tracks is not something the verified facts allow this draft to address.

Readers seeking personnel credits, pressing details, or context beyond what the label, catalog number, year, and tracklist provide should treat those areas as unconfirmed pending further research.
