I've bought Gang Of Four - a brief history of the twentieth century as a present for someone.

But that's my taste.

I took it as being more of a personal favourites of Simon Reynolds so I wasn't really upset about him leaving out 'key' bands or anything. I quite like the fact that the B52s are on there because most people wouldn't have put them on there...not serious enough for most post punk scholars I imagine. Shame the B52s track isn't that great though.

I would have left of Human League and Heaven 17 as well but only because I think they are shit. A few others I would have left out as well and I thought the Slits track was an odd choice, so much better stuff on that record.

It did back up my suspicion that Pulsallama are great and need investigating further though.

And it was oly £5 and I did get to talk to the cute girl that works in Fopp so everyones a winner really.

That's true.

It seems to be a very personal choice rather than trying to encapsulate the time.

And I approve of the oddness of some of the tracks; it must have been very tempting to include a lot of more obvious bands and tracks.

There's a good thread to be started here: Compile a 20 track postpunk compilation. But I'm not going to start it until I've decided my own tracklisting.



EDIT - It could be quite a while before I think about starting this. I compiled a list of artists and realised that I was about to put together a pretty run-of-the-mill "Alternative 80s" type compilation.

Yay! Pink Flag on vinyl! I got my copy last month, too. Along with Chairs Missing and 154--which you must also own.

You got the 180 gram LP, right? Rhino, I think? Isn't it sweet? They did that one right--sounds so nice, and great job on the reissue cover/inner sleeve art, too.

Atlantic Black Gold - The 20 Great Soul Hits by Original Artists
Girls With Guitars

The Girls With Guitars LP is really good. It's a collection of stuff from female beat groups. Lulu appears on it but apart from that it's good.
