The Motels – All Four One (LP, Album, Club Edition, Stereo, Columbia House, Carrollton Pressing, 1982, Capitol Records ST 512177)

Why This Record Matters
All Four One is the breakthrough album from The Motels and includes their signature hit “Only The Lonely.” The record blends new wave textures with polished pop-rock songwriting and helped establish the band as a major presence on early 1980s radio and MTV. Original US pressings remain popular with collectors of new wave and classic 1980s pop.

Collector Note
1982 US Columbia House club edition pressed at Columbia Records' Carrollton, Georgia plant, identified by the G1 runout marking and absence of a barcode. Mastered at The Mastering Lab by Doug Sax and Mike Reese. Early Carrollton pressings are sought after by fans of the band's most successful release.
