Created by aspiring songwriter and recent music-school dropout Monica Rypma, incredibly the album's recording and production was entirely financed from sponsorship and advertising, way back in 1985. Inspired by Ren� Van Helsdingen, the Amsterdam based composer, pianist and crowd-funding pioneer, Monica decided to sell advertising space on the album sleeve and name the album 'Classifieds', designing the cover to mimic a newspaper's small ads layout. Written and recorded in only 5 days with Ren� Van Helsdingen collaborator, synth wizard and multi-instrumentalist Brian Batie producing, the album was engineered by Wil Hesen at Studio Farmsound in Heelsum.
