Description
The antidote to last weeks soft rock mix, I made this one as a reminder of the sort of stuff I was listening to in those pre-teen, late 70's and early 80's. 28 classic punk & post -punk tracks in the mix.
The Cure, The Clash, The Jam, Siouxsie & The Banshees & The Stranglers probably appeared on every mixtape I ever made back then. New Order, Echo & The Bunnymen, U2, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy and (randomly) The Danse Society became obsessions in the early 80's. Ramones, ESG & Violent Femmes I didn't discover until years later. There are some great 45's from The Undertones, Buzzcocks, Teardrop Explodes, Skids, The The and ummm... how did Lords Of The New Church end up on here!? Oh and a few punk novelties that I found hilarious, from Splodgenessabounds, Jilted John & The Barracudas (!).
As always, thank you all for your support and encouragement. I appreciate every Play, Fave and Repost and hope this one get's you up and pogoing around the room with me "Hey... Ho... Let's Go!" 🤖
