Blank Generation
Steve Green
I got a free spin this week and get to randomly play 35 classic records by 35 artists from 1975 to 1980. Choosing what to play was not a problem, but deciding what to leave out is always difficult. Every one of this week’s selection is a timeless gem from an era that simply hasn’t lost its energy, originality, diversity, relevance and power. Do yourself a favour and play this two hour assault of pure punk rock nuggets LOUD!
