1. ADAM AND THE ANTS - 'Cartrouble (Parts I & II)' - Do It LP - UK - 1979
'Dirk Wears White Sox' was a bit of a departure from their '77/'78 'bondage' period but it transpired that Adam was a bit of a chameleon anyway so we shouldn't have been surprised. This was the opening track, though I'm not sure what Part 1 has to do with cars?
2. CHANNEL 3 - 'Wetspots' - Posh Boy 12" - USA - 1981
Sexual frustration (and release) from their classic debut Posh Boy E.P.
3. SOCIAL DISTORTION - 'Playpen' - Posh Boy 7" - USA - 1981
The flipside of 'Mainliner', another Posh Boy classic.
4. THE DICKIES - 'Silent
Night' - A & M 7" - USA - 1978
The Dickies had a Christmas single? Of course they did! It's just a shame there wasn't a video.
5. S.N.F.U. - 'Tears' - Cargo LP - Canada - 1988
One of the more bearable tracks from the heavy rocking third album 'Better Than A Stick In The Eye'.
6. ADAM AND THE ANTS - 'Kick' - Do It 7" - UK - 1980
The flipside to the 7" version of 'Cartrouble'.
7. M.I.A. - 'Cold Sweat' - Smoke Seven LP - USA - 1982
This is from their debut 'Last Rites', a split album with Genocide.
8. BLACK FLAG - 'White
Minority' - SST 12" - USA - 1980
The right on police had a go at this one without even trying to understand this song or taking into account that the singer was Puerto Rican. From 'Jealous Again'.
9. THE DICKIES - 'Sounds
Of Silence' -
The flipside of 'Silent Night'. Only surpassed by the Sick Things' version.
10. ADAM AND THE ANTS - 'Friends' - CBS 7" - UK - 1981
The flipside to the godawful 'Ant Rap'. To his credit, Adam promised to release some of their early songs as B-sides and that they did. This is one of them.
11. BATTALION OF SAINTS - 'Modern Day Heroes' - Nutrons 12" - USA - 1982
From their 'Fighting Boys' debut E.P.
12. T.S.O.L. - 'Property
Is Theft' - Posh Boy 12" - USA - 1981
T.S.O.L.'s debut was also a 1981 Posh Boy classic. If only more of their records sounded like this.
13. M.I.A. - 'Angry Youth' -
A second track from 'Last Rites for Genocide and M.I.A.'
14. ADAM AND THE ANTS - 'Fall In' - CBS 7" - UK - 1980
The flipside to 'Antmusic' - another early classic.
15. THE MX80 - 'Someday You'll Be King' - Ralph 7" - USA - 1980
An unusual release for this band (and Ralph) but one which is more in line with the other stuff I post.
16. THE DICKIES - 'Shake
And Bake' - A & M LP - USA - 1979
One from debut album 'The Incredible Shrinking Dickies'.
17. BLACK FLAG - 'Revenge' -
A second track from 'Jealous Again'.
18. SOCIAL DISTORTION - 'Under My Thumb' - 13th Floor 12" - USA - 1982
One from the flipside of the '1945' E.P. A Rolling Stones cover.
19. ADAM AND THE ANTS - 'Fat Fun' - Demo - UK - 1981
Another early song re-recorded but this could only be found on the 'Antbox' retrospective.
20. BATTALION OF SAINTS - 'E/B' -
Another track from 'Fighting Boys'.
21. M.I.A. - 'I Hate
Hippies' -
A third track from 'Last Rites for Genocide and M.I.A.'
22. THE DICKIES - 'Nights
In White Satin' - A & M 7" - USA - 1979
Another white vinyl cover version classic. Except this time there was a video.
23. T.S.O.L. - 'No Way Out' -
And another track from their debut E.P.
24. ADAM AND THE ANTS - 'Kick #2' - Do It 12" - UK - 1982
A different version available on the 'Antmusic' E.P. which has nothing to do with the CBS single.
25. CHANNEL 3 - 'Mannequin' -
And another from their debut Posh Boy E.P.

Now this is another awesome collection of west coast hardcore bands. Love the Posh Boy stuff, the Dickies, and MIA too. I may go see CH3 open for MDC in two weeks here in Chicago. They were great when I saw them at PRB 2 years ago. So were TSOL and the Dickies.
