      @steptaylor4728 5 месяцев назад

      XTC must be the most underrated band of all time. Now go compile a chart of singles where the B side is equal to or better than the A side. As I said this is covered a bit in From Glam To The Jam. Bands such as Stranglers, The Jam, XTC, The Vibrators, The Clash all have worthy contenders!! Just shows the quality that was around 1977-1982.

    Good selection! Killing Joke's Requiem would be in my top 20, as would Bauhaus's Telegram Sam, Underpass by John Foxx, Dog Eat Dog by Adam & the Ants, and one of my all time favourites, Martha and the Muffins' Echo Beach. Re Theatre of Hate, I see someone has already mentioned Do You Believe in the Westworld, so I'll recommend Rebel Without a Brain, Nero and The Hop. Keep up the good work - i've been subscribed to your channel for a few months now but I think this is the first time I've posted a comment

      @@TheVinylOrchard Dog Eat Dog was the single that brought the Ants to the attention of a wider, and younger, audience (I was only 11 in 1980), but prior to their appearance on TotP I believe I'm right in saying that the Ants had a predominantly punk following. Echo Beach is comfortably new wave in my book! If anything, I had second thoughts about including John Foxx, but I guess his links to Ultravox!, as with Numan and Tubeway Army, meant that he was still appreciated by a punk/new wave audience. As I said though, I was only 11 in 1980 🙂

    You have a gem, with theTheatre of Hate debut single. They are led by Kirk Brandon and are still performing. The 1982 album 'Do You Believe in The West World?' is a post-punk classic, and one I had, but let go of, when i thought I might be becoming too old for such things, but great music is eternal and appeals to me, even thogh I,am in my 60.s.

    My favourite track by the Undertones Get Over You. Which absolutely resonated with me during my college days as I was running up the alley to catch the train home. I was madly in love with a fellow student but it was unrequited even though she was happy to hang out with me. She knew my feelings, but I respected her feelings and we remained best friends for years.

      Wanted to avoid ska bands as they didn’t fit. Treason and talk of the town were contenders and in hindsight might have been better but weren’t ‘new wave’ enough. I completely forgot Sgt Rock which is very annoying. Realised that yesterday when it was left out on my table!!

    The Cure-'A Forest', never loses its other-worldly atmosphere ,I still play it regularly after 44 years, what a band ! , and they have a new album in the pipeline this year. You are spot on, 'Argy Bargy' is classic Squeeze, and I think their best album, I've had so many happy hours listening to this magnum opus. Au pairs made two studio albums, a very politically aware group, two males and two females, , anyone who likes Gang of Four would enjoy thier music, I would suggest.

    Some great stuff there, have them all apart from Any Trouble. I prefer Legion by Theatre of Hate to the other double A-side song Original Sin, it's a classic and Warhead is still my favourite UK Subs song. In a personal preference of singles I'd put above some in the list that I still love from 1980, Dark Entries by Bauhaus, Holiday in Cambodia by the Dead Kennedys, Wardance by Killing Joke (the b-side Pssyche is just as good though), Bad Man by the Cockney Rejects and Big A Little A by Crass (which to me is far superior than Nagasaki Nightmare which was on the flip of this double A-side).

    • @TheVinylOrchard
      @TheVinylOrchard  7 месяцев назад

      Legion is excellent too. I didn’t even realise it was a double A. I don’t own any Bauhaus. They passed me by at the time and when I tried to find some they are so expensive. Not a fan of dead kennedys. I avoid the Oi stuff. It has too many political overtones often. Wish I had that killing joke single.

      @@TheVinylOrchard Yep, the KJ single is class, as is the one after, Requiem. I liked all sub genres around punk ranging from post punk to goth to anarcho to Oi! but yes, the latter was a hot potato politically at times. At least the Cockney Rejects were wise enough to dismiss the politics around it, they preferred the football but that brought a whole new heap of trouble in itself!

    I used to have that game from the sleeve of Undertones. Wasn't really good. It was too clumsy to move the players around.
    The only one of these that i do have is Going Underground. Pulling Mussels is on my shopping list so i hope to have it. I've actually seen it several times, but i don't wanna pay as much as they are asking for it. For some reason while all the other Squeeze singles are cheap, Mussels and Goodbye Girl are the only ones that have high asking price.
    My luck has continued. After your previous video i've found Ruts Babylon's Burning. So will my luck continue and if so which single will i find next?

    Two of my favourites of tge genre here Chris - The Vapors and Joy Division. Any Trouble were a decent band led by guitarist Clive Gregson. He went onto play in Richard Thompson's band which must have been daunting playing guitar alongside one of the best guitarists ever (IMHO). He then formed a duo with Christine Collister who was also in Thompson's band and did a number of good albums. Not sure if they're still doing anything.

      1980 was also the year I discovered New York Rocker which actually debuted in 1977. At first the monthly magazine centered on the goings on at CBGB. By 1980 it was international with a concentration on UK punk and new wave bands. There were interviews with Cocteaus, Magazine, Young Marble Giants, etc. along with album and concert reviews. It shut down around 1984, but I believe back issues may be available.
