Generating Steam Heat radio show 19.04.16 (Punk Wars Veterans Association top 20 special)


For this weeks show we handed over the playlist to the members of the Punk Wars Veterans Association Facebook group.

The group has over 4000 members worldwide and over the past month the PWVA members have chosen a punk rock top 20 via a complicated voting/payola system. The cash/results came in and the 20 tracks with the most votes made up this weeks extended show #54.

Over 200 individual songs received votes and of those, the unlucky few that just missed the top 20 this week will be included on next weeks show alongside some great new music that we have lined up. 

For now though, enjoy the Punk Wars Veterans Association top 20…

The playlist and some notes: 

The Kids-Fascist Cops (From the self titled Phillips Records album 1978)

The Damned-New Rose (Stiff Records 7’’ 1976)

We talked about ‘New Rose’ being the first UK punk single but asked if any non UK punk bands singles pre dated this. PWVA admin Barry Phillips contacted us with the news that The Saints ‘I’m Stranded’ beat the Damned into the shops by a few month. Hear The Saints classic later in the show…
