Terminal Jive is the ninth album by Sparks, and the second in co-operation with Giorgio Moroder. It was recorded in 1979 and released in August 1980. The album has a disco-vibe like its predecessor but featured fewer synthesizers, opting instead for more electric guitar. The album was produced by Giorgio Moroder and Harold Faltermeyer, the latter of whom is claimed to have produced the majority of the album.
The album was entirely shunned in the Anglo-Saxon world. However, Sparks scored a massive hit single in France with "When I'm With You", which led to them staying in the country for a year promoting the album.
