VA - Burning Ambitions: A History Of Punk 1984

As I have mentioned in the past, my formative music years were during the second wave of punk and most of what I listened to back then was punk or new wave. When I first saw a copy of "Burning Ambitions: A History of Punk" I absolutely knew I had to have a copy, and I was soon able to purchase a copy for my listning pleasure. And what pleasure it was, this double album become an almost permanent fixture on my turntable. The hardcore stuff on the second platter, I was already familiar with, but the earlier stuff from the late 70s was a revelation. This Comp was reissued later on CD as a 3 disc set, with most of the original on the first disc, but with some tracks missing and not on the other CD's it wasn't the same. Between Chuntao and I, we have managed to cobble together the original 2 record track listing and here it is for your listening pleasure. The Adam and the Ants track "Lady", is only the Demo version as I cannot find the actual version, it is very rare. If anyone has it I would love to get my hands on it. Roddus.
