Out of print for 15 years, Soul Jazz Records’ Do It Yourself features a host of post punk, punk, punk funk / dance and electronic experimentation from UK bands in the late 1970s and 80s that all arrived in the aftermath of punk. As well as loads of great music, the album also charts the rise of the independent music industry in Britain that similarly thrived during this time.
Featuring classic groups such as The Buzzcocks, A Certain Ratio, The Fire Engines, Glaxo Babies and a host of lesser known, rare and obscure tracks and artists, this new 2024 edition comes as a special coloured double vinyl pressing, complete with deluxe gatefold sleeve with two unique inner sleeves.
This fully remastered album comes with extensive sleevenotes and photography as well as interviews with key behind-the- scene players - including studios, cutting rooms, print works - that together bring a fantastic insight into the DIY music and culture of this period and the explosion in the independent music industry after punk.
