V/A- Riotous Assembly LP ('82 UK Punk Comp)

For the first time since 1982 this legendary UK punk compilation is back on vinyl!  All legends have a beginning, and this is the glorious start of the Riot City label, the first release which kicked off one of the greatest runs of punk releases of all time.  Packed out with legends who would go on to define both the Riot City sound as well as the broader "UK82" genre, here you get early tracks from Vice Squad, Chaos UK, Expelled, Abrasive Wheels, and several others, some owing their only vinyl appearance to this compilation.  A stunning snapshot of the creativity and political outrage boiling in Bristol's UK youth cult at the time, as well as a testament to the networking and vision of one of punk's greatest labels.
