"Either some rough edits or the taper turned the
recorder off and on between songs. No music is missing
but applause is cut off at end of most songs."

Young Marble Giants - Berkeley Square, Berkeley, California, USA - 25.10.1980 (Flac)

Very Good FM broadcast. Another tape from the Foxtrotter archives. Thanks to Creatured for sharing it on Dime.

I think he taped this himself off the radio.  Seems to be incomplete too ,missing 3 songs.
If you have the complete version,share it.

 I think this show was the same as the Cabaret Voltaire I seeded
a little while back.

 I believe Our Daughters Wedding played this night too. unless it was at another venue onthe same night. Yes,i have the ODW show too, but that is going to be awile before i can seed that.

FM>cass1?>Azimuth Calibration>Audacity>Normalize>TLH>Flac

Will need help with the setlist.

Punk Brittania Ep. 3 (DVD)

Last part,focusing on bands that are regularly on the blog.

Episode 3 of 3

Duration: 1 hour

Punk had shown what it was against - now what was it for? In the wake of the Pistols' demise a new generation of musicians would re-imagine the world they lived in through the music they made. Freed up by punk's DIY ethos, a kaleidoscope of musical influences broke three chord conformity.

Public Image Limited allowed Johnny Rotten to become John Lydon the artist. In Manchester, Magazine would be first to record in the wake of the Pistols' split, Mark E Smith made street poetry while Ian Curtis turned punk's external rage into an existential drama. A raft of left-wing art school intellectuals like Gang of Four and Wire imbued post-punk with a sense of radical politics and conceptualism while the Pop Group infused funk with anti-capitalist sentiment in the early days of Thatcher. Flirting with fascism and violence, the working class Oi! movement tried to drag punk from the Kings Road into the heart of the East End whilst Anarcho punks Crass embarked on the most radical vision of any.

In a time beset by dread and tension perhaps the biggest paranoia was Mutually Assured Destruction essayed perfectly by Young Marble Giants' Final Day. Released in the height of Thatcherism, Ghost Town by The Specials marked a parting of the post-punk waves. Some would remain avowedly uncommercial whilst others would explore pop as a new avenue in the new decade. The song that perhaps summed up post-punk's journey was Orange Juice's Rip It Up and Start Again.

With John Lydon, Howard Devoto, Mark E Smith, Peter Hook, Jerry Dammers, The Raincoats, Wire, Jah Wobble, Mark Stewart, Edwyn Collins, Young Marble Giants and many more
