Action Time Vision: Story of Uk Independent Punk - Action Time Vision: Story Of UK Independent Punk

Four CD collection. Autumn 2016 marks the 40th anniversary of the British musical revolution that was punk rock, fanfared by the release of 'Anarchy In The UK' by the Sex Pistols and 'New Rose' by The Damned. Marking this monumental birthday, Action Time Vision is the first-ever box set to document the independent punk scene, which was born with punk and thrived outside of the major label framework. With 111 tracks, this longform box set follows previous, acclaimed compilations from Cherry Red dedicated to Indie Pop (Scared To Get Happy), Shoegaze (Still In A Dream), Mod Revival (Millions Like Us), Heavy Psychedelia (I'm A Freak Baby), etc. The 64-page booklet includes authoritative band biogs and an insightful foreword by journalist Kris Needs (then editor of Zigzag magazine, which produced the first directory of Indie labels; he also fronted the Vice Creems).
