UK POST PUNK

VA - To The Outside Of Everything, A Story Of UK Post Punk 1977-1981 [2017]  (5 x CD's)


Named after a lyric from Magazine’s ground-breaking hit, ‘Shot By Both Sides’, TO THE OUTSIDE OF EVERYTHING tells a musical story of how the UK’s post-punk scene evolved from the spirit of 1977 and the arrival of key labels such as Fast, Rough Trade, Zoo, Factory and Cherry Red.

This box set starts in in 1977 and takes you up to 1981 that still after 40 years of being a big fan sounds stupid! What was going on in the UK starting in 1977 was actually happening a few years earlier but prior to 1977 it was called GARAGE/ACID ROCK, anyway by 1977 there was so much going on in the UK outside of the damned and sex pistols there was just really no name to put on it, PUNK was the year in 1977 UK but there were a lot of other things happening as by 1977 I think many fans where getting tired of the prog rock situation that had dominated starting around 1968/69 as well as blues hard rock. I was time for something new and Punk was it but you also got a lot of other experimental bands coming along and the times were starting to change not just in the UK but New York, LA, Amsterdam & Stockholm, as I have many 45s and great punk or as they call it post punk records from that era. Regardless this great remastered cd box set sounds fantastic and gives you 5 discs of great Punk & Experimental rock bands that started in 1977 in the UK, there is so much great timeless music here and a wonderful book to go with this set. There are so many great NON household named bands here. If that was your thing 40 years back don't pass up on this Box Set. (Amazon)
