zhlédnutí 23KPřed rokem
UK Punk singles I bought, some on their first day of release, through 1976 - 77 - 78 - 79. part 1 - The first wave of bands. I was 16 years old. My sister was training to be a nurse and lived in a flat off Ladbroke Grove in London. When visiting, I was lucky to pick up the early first releases from vinyl shops in the area including the original Rough Trade shop. The list is roughly in the order...

Eliza Hill - A Cornish Story - The Gerrans Collective
zhlédnutí 50Před 3 lety
Eliza Hill; the young girl on the headstone and laid-to-rest in a family grave, was the inspiration for this song. She died in 1866, only 22-years-old and her Daughter aged 2 followed in 1868. The bare-bones of the song were written and recorded in a converted Chapel House in Gerrans, Cornwall and most likely the place she too attended as a young girl. All their names are a piece of stone.

    Ill give you a score for that god save the queen a&m mate. But seriously, how did you acquire a copy as it wasn't released. I knew a guy who claimed he sent a postal order to a&m and they sent him a copy. Never saw it though. Probably spoofing.

    A real trip down memory lane . I’m sure Identity was pink vinyl . Also I’m surprised you don’t have Orgasm Addict by Buzzcocks with picture sleeve , also Autonomy . Public Image with newspaper sleeve was 1978 , Hong Kong Garden by SATB , Sweet Suburbia by Skids on white vinyl , Slaughter & the Dogs 12” Where Have All The Bootboys Gone plus early stuff by Chelsea , Cortina’s etc . Still a great video though , brings back great memories.

    'oy, Mike, We're the same age, yet I, a staunch Midwesterner (USA) came from a different culture. I imagine most other of my pleb brothers set the standard at ' Zepplin before a slow decay to factory labor, problem drinking and Lynyrd Skynyrd. I got a friend arrested trying to sneak in to a show, although, I can boast of strong arming my way into an original Who concert just on a street urchin's whim ... We never knew Jack about Punk (yet Belushi died for our neglect). I can recommend "Riot". written by my dear North Country friend and mentor. Subsequently, it was banned in Britain. Written in Bristol, early '80's, Riot was a ska flavored tome of migratory tension and unrest ... oops! Turns out they did.

    An interesting clutch of punk singles there, Mike. I had a few of those- nearly all gone for 50p to a dealer as I recall. The Stranglers 'Walk on By' was in fact given free with the first few thousand copies of 'Black & White' LP. Yours is not purple but described as beige and thus very collectible.

      Believe it or not Walk on By was actually issued with the first 75000 copies of B&W just goes to show how big record sales were in the 70s. Choosie Susie was released as a freebie with Rattus Norvegicus I think with the first 15000 copies
