I borrowed a Flipside compilation from M. Webb back in 84 or 85--he used to spend summers in So. Cal. with his dad--I ended up buying several more and then branched out to other comps., including a couple of ones from SST Records. They were more or less my my introduction to Hardcore Punk and alternative music in general.
World Class Punk $13.99
The underground cult classic 1984 ROIR cassette on CD! 27 bands! 25 countries! Produced by Mykel Board for Seidboard World Enterprises with the help of Flipside, Maximum Rock N' Roll and Truly Needy Magazine.
Old School Punk $11.98
Wasted Youth, Circle Jerks, FEAR, Germs, TSOL, Adolescents, Agent Orange, D.I., Suicidal Tendencies, Flipper, Channel 3, Redd Kross, and X. LA Hardcore at it's finest (almost).
Punk Comp. $15.49
The newly relaunched Zonophone label on EMI is proud to announce its first release -'Happening, Alive & Nasty', a punk compilation which truly reflects the label's ethos of 'Unheard' ('Whips And Furs' - The Vibrators), 'Unearthed' ('Ain't No Legend' - The Maniacs) and all of it 'Rediscovered'. Happening, Alive and Nasty pays thrilling testament to the brief period when the music business had no idea what it was dealing with, when the doors flung open to mavericks, weirdo's and inspired innovators. The real spirit of punk - the full glorious, ear-bashing mess - was much more exciting than anything that would be defined. The album features Generation X's debut 'Your Generation', Buzzcocks and Wire B-Sides, rarities from the Stranglers and the never issued second Vibrators single 'Bad Time'. Also has the Skidz and 999!!!
CBGB $19.98
Two CD compilation featuring 34 tracks by some of the biggest and most influential acts to play the historic NY nightclub during the rise of Punk Rock and New Wave in the mid-to-late '70s..

Post-Punk Comp. $29.49
By 1977, the punk-rock movement had become a parody of itself. Rip It Up And Start Again, the book and the CD, is a celebration of what happened next: post-punk bands like The Slits, Devo, Scritti Politti, Cabaret Voltaire, The Raincoats, and The Human League, who dedicated themselves to fulfilling punk's unfinished musical revolution. The post-punk groups were fervent modernists - experimenting with electronics and machine rhythm or adapting ideas from dub reggae and disco. A veritable cornucopia of the great and the good from the late 70s/early 80s era, Rip It Up covers the postpunk spectrum from household names to esoteric cult artists. V2 Records. 2006.
