Avon Calling
Originally released on the Heartbeat label in 1979, and featuring the likes of Glaxo Babies, X-Certs, Vice Squad,
Private Dicks, and The Stingrays, Avon Calling was the statement of intent of the late 70s Bristol post-punk scene.
Though Bristol is certainly not the first city that comes to mind when the term "British post-punk" is mentioned, the
music scene there during the late 70s was stylistically diverse and boundary pushing. Theres no better example of the
fruits of that scene than Avon Calling; from straight punk to pub rock, art-punk to dubbed out jams, this comp has it
all. A truly unique collection from Englands most underrated post-punk metropolis. "Avon Calling is a veritable riot of
stunning pop." - NME
