This is a very rare first edition of a voluminous work, compiled by B. George and Martha Defoe. It is the most exhaustive compilation of punk, new wave, futurist and hard core discographies ever assembled. In addition to a massive list of bands and their output the book has sections on compilation albums, UK and US labels, distributors, fanzines and regional listings. Includes advertisements which are also useful to the historian of the popular music of the late 70s and early 80s. There are records listed in this book that are not to be found mentioned elsewhere.
