Disk 2 : Includes the Jam, stranglers, Generation X and the undertones. Top tracks are X-Yay Spex and Stiff Little fingers - this is more accessable punk
Disk 3 :- This is new wave and has no well known names but tracks by Klark Kent, Heartbreakers, and the Flys are excellant. Only let down by the Electric Chairs "F**k off" which sounds very dated now

Disk 5: Includes PIL, Siouxsie & the Banshees, Adam & the Ants - again accessable punk
