Art School Dance Goes On

'LEEDS POST-PUNK 1977-84' - The Leeds post-punk scene, and the impact of the city's art schools on its music, have been unjustly overlooked - until now. This double vinyl set compiled by author Gavin Butt comprises hitherto unreleased, unheard and rare tracks, plus several favourites, by diverse art school acts who experimented with art-punk, electro, pop, dada, fluxus and punk-funk. Contains extensive liner notes and reproductions of unseen ephemera and artworks. Includes tracks by The Gang Of Four, The 3 Johns, Soft Cell, Delta 5, Another Colour, Mekons, MRA, Sheeny & The Goys among others.
