Richard Hell and The Voidoids "Blank Generation" cassette tape
This is arguably the definitive New York Punk album. More importantly, it’s aged pretty darn well. Richard Hell’s yelp and squeals get the attention but Robert Quine’s leads and Ivan Julian’s rhythm guitar keep the noise sharp. Full of witty puns and 70s cool, this is the album that bridged The Ramones to The Sex Pistols and Elvis Costello. An absolute must and pretty in pink on cassette.
