 | Description: | ondon, 1979. From the rubble and ashes of punk a new youth cult was emerging. Divinely inspired by
Bowie, Roxy Music and Kraftwerk, a new tribe the press started labelling New Romantics, or Futurists,
discarded punkâ??s old-hat claims towards authenticity and protest, in pursuit of glamour, make-up,
dressing up and dancing. Their home was The Blitz Club, a tiny wine bar at the edge of Covent Garden
and what went on there between 1979 and 1980 would genuinely change the world. The other name for
this cult? Blitz Kids.
Without necessarily knowing it, The Blitz was birthing the next wave of British pop stars. A young Boy
George ran the cloakroom, its host and doorman was a young Steve Strange, soon-to-be the frontman of
Visage, Spandau Ballet played their first gig there and on a given night you might find yourself dancing
next to a member of Ultravox. Fashion designers in Regency ballgowns mingled with secretaries in
rubber, post boys dressed as Biggles danced next to art school kids dressed as Pierrot. David Bowie
assembled his extras for the â??Ashes To Ashesâ?? video from the Blitz kids. Mick Jagger was refused entry.
Too square.
And the club had a mighty soundtrack, assembled painstakingly by its resident DJ Rusty Egan. Rustyâ??s sets
brought together heroes like Eno, Iggy, and Lou Reed cool European electronic pioneers like Kraftwerk,
Telex and Yello, the electronic side of disco (Cerrone, Hot Chocolate, Amanda Lear) and cutting-edge film
soundtracks from the likes of Vangelis, Giorgio Moroder and Barry De Vorzon. Rusty also span the
nascent sounds of Britianâ??s next new wave â?? Japan, Landscape, the Human League, Visage, Ultravox, Fad
Gadget...
Compiled exhaustively from his DJ sets, â??Rusty Egan Presents The Blitzâ?? brings together the sounds of a
night at the club circa 1980 on either 66 track 4CD or 36 track 4LP sets. Beautifully presented with
contemporary photography from Sheila Rock, Peter Ashworth and Terry Smith, the booklets also contain
sleeve notes from Alexis Petridis and Rusty himself. - Limited four vinyl LP pressing containing 36 tracks. London, 1979. From the rubble and ashes of punk a new youth cult was emerging.
