Flashlite #355: Vinyl Junkyard 14

Hope and AnchorIt’s time for another Vinyl Junkyard special of The Little Lighthouse. In such special episodes I play almost entire LPs that I found dirt cheap somewhere laying in some bargain bin at a record store. Today’s pick is a live compilation album London R And B Sessions at Hope And Anchor. Hope and Anchor was an important live venue in London that promoted pub rock and punk bands in the late 70s. There was a well known live compilation that promoted punk rock in 1977, but there is also a lesser known album from 1980 that promoted rhythm and blues sound and featured excellent pub rock bands from that era. This lesser known album is the topic of today’s special. Kick back and enjoy cuts from this album, mixed in with some studio recordings and some info that I found about this interesting rock scene.
