Was making up an aerobics playlist on a music streaming service the other day and discovered an album I remember buying as a gayling (late teens I guess). Its a compilation of US West Coat hardcore punk bands that I'd bought on the strength of it being on Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles record label and it mostly didnt disappoint, I copied all my faves onto cassette and played the shit out of it. Not the first album I bought (that might have been Led Zeppelin or something like that a couple of years prior ) but it was an unexpected pleasure to rediscover tracks I havent heard in many years. I recall I got this shortly after I got the Dead Kennedy's "Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables" which I loved (and is now featuring on my 80's music aerobics playlist, its how I ran across this little gem)
I suspect I might have been something of an musical outlier as a gayling, what were you fave albums?
