Ike! Ha, good question
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:48pm

I knew who Neu were but didn't know they had a song called Negativland, or that that's where the Contra Costa band nicked their name from.

SST Records' Greg Ginn threatened to put out a parody cassette called Positivland when his label and Negativland were in a bitter legal battle, but never did, as far as I know.

There were probably places in the U.S. where you could get them as imports, but it would likely have been rare in 1972? They did have some Euro-wide album hits, I think, but not sure which of these ...
