System 7

Their debut, ambient and space rock for the dance floor, released in the US as 777.
System 7, 1991

It came out on Ten/Virgin as DIXCD 102 on CD and DIXG 102 on a double LP. AllMusic's John Bush gave 4 of 5 and called it a potent crossover record; NME's Dele Fadele gave 5 of 10, Select 3 of 5. The Rough Guide to Rock called it accessible, if in retrospect untypical. The US edition, 777 on Caroline in July or August 1992, runs 78:33 across 14 tracks and includes two alternate mixes of Miracle single tracks.
