Missile Command (1982)

I found this album for $1 a few years ago. I bought it for my friend Joe (that's his hands holding the LP) because he's super into classic Atari stuff. Before I gave it to him I managed to rip it but I forgot to scan the cover so the images I have here were found on the web – gotta love Google images.

Missile Command is a 1980 arcade game by Atari Inc. The plot of Missile Command is simple: the player's six cities are being attacked by an endless hail of ballistic missiles, some of them even splitting like multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles, and in later levels smart bombs which can evade a less than perfectly targeted missile. As a regional commander of three anti-missile batteries, the player must defend six cities in their zone from being destroyed. Well, it actually is simpler than it sounds.

In 1982, the record label Kid Stuff started putting out records based on the most popular video games. The first three albums were for Atari's flagship games: Asteroids, Missile Command, and Yars Revenge. Each included a theme song followed by a usually rather nonsensical adventure story. Anything to cash in on a craze. Here's Missile Command...
