Compilation albums played a particularly vital role in the development of new punk rock bands, since relatively few local bands had a large enough audience to justify their own albums. This is a list of punk rock compilation albums. The mythical Peel Session is included in the download, during which the late Mr Ravenscroft commented,rather prophetically 'If they are this good now,just think how good they're gonna be when they are as old as Siouxsie and the Banshees? The chances are,as often happens,they won't be as good as they are now.But,time will tell.' It's for this reason one has disgarded the A-side of the 'General Davis' single, with its horrible 'political' awareness,and cheesy moral theme.yuk! Children shouldn't be corrupted with such shit, gimmie 'Lord of the Flies' over the young conservatives conference any day of the week.Īll the hits are here, from 'Inverness' to 'Disco Pope' to that dodgy german one.It's always good to see an unhealthy obsession with german's too,they even had an unrecorded song in their live set called 'Nazi Aircraft'.Dr.Spock (the child psychologist not the Vulcan Science Officer from Star Trek,he was called Mister Spock) would be spinning in his grave.

What can one add to the legend of the Prats? A flame that burnt so brightly,so briefly,for a few months between 1979 and 80,only to be destroyed by the adolescent urge to be 'sophisticated'.
