Not much information could be found about the band Branded but Peter Miller and Margi Miller also look to have formed The Miller Band around the same time. Later (in the early 2000's) Peter Miller played steel guitar with the Tuscadero's.
On this album Margi has a distinctive vocal style which adds a hint of the Blues to their songs.
The recording studios E.M.S were South Australian (Adelaide) based and usually recorded & released South Australian artists.

Cover is in good condition, no seam splits, no writing, no tears and very light edge wear from handling however there are signs of previous liquid spills on the cover and general wear n tear over the years (rubbing etc)
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in very good condition, visually inspected under a bright white halogen light source and I can only see a couple of light scratches on each side, but just looking at a piece of vinyl really isn't good enough so I then played the album ENTIRELY and listened carefully. Surface noise is not a significant issue and barely any click/pops.
New outer plastic protective sleeve
