2. American Youth Report comp
3. Decline of Western Civilization soundtrack
4. Stiff Little Fingers - Inflammable Material
5. Stiff Little Fingers - Go For It
6. Replacements - Sorry Ma
7. Angry Samoans - Back from Samoa
8. Pretenders II

1982: typical Friday night in Conway, Arkansas. My friends Curt and Chris Johnson and Stacy Davis cruise Wal-Mart parking lot in Stacy's 1970 Pontiac Gran Prix, blasting:1. Ramones- Rocket To Russia
2. The Rezillos- Can't Stand The Rezillos
3. The Clash
4. Wire- Pink Flag
5. The Saints- Eternally Yours
6. Iggy Pop- New Values (we latched on to this one for some reason)
7. Magazine- The Correct Use Of Soap
8. Sex Pistols- Nevermind The Bullocks
9. 20 Of Another Kind compilation
10. Live At The Roxy comp. We were kind of strange for Conway, Arkansas in 1982. Go Wampus Cats! Man, I sure haven't changed much in the music deptartment. I can't decide if that's depressing or not. I'm a punk rock version of a "classic rocker", I guess. Oh well. [This message has been edited by Nick Sakes (edited 01-08-2002).] IP: Logged |

It was the closest thing I experienced to punk during my 4 years of working in LR. Moving to Mpls in late 1988 was a blessed relief & release! IP: Logged |

No, I always heard about it from little sister who was living there at the time. Back then, the punk scene was based solely around the import bin at Camelot Records at McCain Mall. Nothing. I think we were the first. Wasn't Vino's having shows then? I went to a really good there once visiting my mom in L.R. with Buzzoven, Hoover and Plaid Retina.
It's good you got out of there. I hate Arkansas. IP: Logged |

Oh- that reminds me- at home when no one was looking we were listening to Dance Craze, Madness, Specials, English beat and the cure. Also I left off Buzzcocks Singles Going steady, Braham Tchaikovsky- The Russians are Coming, Lou Reed Rock N Roll Animal, the Decline, and a bunch opf other stuff that'd make this list pretty unweildy.

For what it's worth, Rifle Sport Live at the Entry has a cover of Marseilles on it, we also used to cover I'm Not The One....
I think that's what it was called.
Perkeo! The Cove! I used to hang out there in '76 while I went to Indianhead Tech. There were these prog-rock bands I used to see, Wired and M.A. Free Press, classmates of mine. Jeff Beck and Yes covers, gin and tonics...good times, good times....IP: Logged |

1982????
ok, there was no doubt more Suburbs being played than was necessary.
David Bowie "Peter and the Wolf"
Cookie Monster "C is for Cookie"
Replacements
Ramones
Pretenders
my playlist was controlled by the autistic 2 year old I was living with at the time. If he liked it, it got heavy rotation. Those autistic kids are really very particular about their music.IP: Logged |

"I Ain't The One" from the US album by Angel City entitled "Face To Face". The US release, like so many other Aussie records, was a comp from the bands earlier Oz only releases.
