Buzzcocks:  Click to read full review

CD / various / Downtown 81 / Virgin France

The Vibrators:  Click to read full review

CD / The Vibrators / Pure Mania / Columbia

A great LP with clean production, lots of energy, and fun songs with great melody that stick in your head. After all, this is the band with the song "Stiff Little Fingers" that inspired the name of the Irish band a few years later.
