First, you must all worship me, in accordance with Tom's post. I know, I lack subtlety.

You also must understand that my husband and I are old, we were teenagers in the 80's. We only had cassettes back then. My husband has announced that he would like to try to reclaim (on CD's) some of the music he used to listen to. He has not given me direct album titles, or even artists in specific. Not helpful.

He lived in England in the 80's and liked punk. I am 4 years younger than he, and grew up in the 80's hair rock country. I need your help.

So. Besides the obvious such as the Sex Pistols, The Clash, and The Ramones.... that's all I got. I need your help. Popular punk in England in the 80's.

Suggest away!

Not to nitpick, but wasn't true punk mostly in the 1970s? - 29/11/2010 09:37:47 PM 507 Views

Music is so personal, you might be better off sacrificing some of the surprise. - 30/11/2010 02:18:32 PM 471 Views
