Finally got my hands on 1-2-3-4 Punk & New Wave 1976-79. Arguably, the finest compilation, ever. And superbly packaged.
Is it just me, but the thought of punk on anything but vinyl just seems wrong? (I assume the compilation is on CD)Finally got my hands on 1-2-3-4 Punk & New Wave 1976-79. Arguably, the finest compilation, ever. And superbly packaged.
I know exactly what you mean. I transferred plenty of my vinyl & the pops ‘n’ crackles add to the nostalgia. But it is superbly packaged including a detailed booklet which would never have been part of vinyl package.Is it just me, but the thought of punk on anything but vinyl just seems wrong?

Thanks. Right up my street!
Andrew, absolutely agree. Amazing stuff but my eighteen year-old daughter tells me that I'm bit behind the curve (as usual!) as she saw her live in Exeter two years' ago, when she was supporting Loyle Carner.This weekend I am besotted with a new album by a young singer with real soul and a gift for powerful lyrics
I bit on this and found a copy via Discogs - the booklet is very extensive indeed and having CDs means I can rip to multiple devices.I know exactly what you mean.

Wandering the streets of Barnes yesterday past the small record shop related to the Olympic Studios/Cinema and there in the window display staring me in the face was an eight track cartridge sitting half in and half out of an eight track cartridge machine. Haven’t seen one for at least forty years. So long ago I couldn’t even recall the name of the format.As with everything from this period it only reveals its full glory in the eight-track cartridge format. All other music reproduction systems are second best, though possibly a little more practical.

I was there that night and it was great.
The eight-track was invented by Bill Lear as a convenient music music source for his jets, this doesn't however absolve him of naming his daughter Shanda.As with everything from this period it only reveals its full glory in the eight-track cartridge format.

No joke ( on my part), verifiably true.Bloody hell - I assumed that was a joke. Well, I mean your joke!
Yes! I did that... Quite a sense of humour.....No joke ( on my part), verifiably true.
