POST PUNK
VA - Fame, Jon Savage's Secret History of Post-Punk 1978-81 (2021 Re-Edition) [2021]
This album is a compilation of post-punk gems from various post-punk bands and artists, curated by Jon Savage, a British writer and music journalist. It is a re-edition of a previous vinyl release from 2012, with some changes in the track list and the artwork. The album covers the period from 1978 to 1981, when post-punk emerged as a diverse and experimental musical movement, influenced by punk rock, art rock, dub, funk, electronic music, and avant-garde. The album features some of the most influential and innovative post-punk acts, such as Pere Ubu, Chrome, Cabaret Voltaire, The Human League, Wire, Joy Division, DNA, and more. The album also includes a 12-page booklet with Jon Savage’s liner notes and photos from the era. The album is a limited edition of 300 copies on CD format, so don’t miss this opportunity to own a piece of music history. (B)
