Glad to see The Stains album. That is an incredible album cover to cover. Doesn't get the attention it deserves. One not included on your list that you should check out is the Red Rockers 1st album, Condition Red. Another album that doesn't get a lot of notice but is a must listen.
I saw Doggy Style in Las Vegas in 1987. The stage in the little place collapsed and the band kept on rocking. I can't find the flyer from the record store that turned me on to the gig.
@@vinylrichie007 I also drove from Needles California to Las Vegas a month later and saw M.I.A. That show was at the same venue. That time the stage stayed put. Tomorrow night Negative Approach will be rocking Detroit.
@@TheWinston7777 I did see MIA at one of the big Olympic shows. I remember they were one of the best bands of the night and the singer really stood out. He is good.
Glad you put The Cramps 'Songs The lord Taught us' in there, you are also right Never Mind The Bollocks doesn't have a bad song (I am a biased English bloke) and relative to when it came out as it offended the masses in the UK but Dead Kennedy's 'Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables' has the edge on it for me as they were nuts and could scare a young mind into thinking for themselves (thanks Jello) I still play it now when I want some clarity!! Adolescents played Hastings UK before life shut down, top blokes!!! Great gig. Good man, great stuff, great list!! FANTASTIC indeed.
What an honor to see your collection, and your respect and knowledge for the genre in general. It's amazing to see how you grew up with all this stuff, how you also searched for some different music in the sea of a bunch of crap, especially without the internet. Great video, there's LOTS of these that I have no idea about, so it's great to hear a top 100 from a true punk!
You must've been hell in the mosh. yes, fantastic. (Ok I see you said something about that yourself haha..). I was clicking in and out, and I swear: every time I come in you were saying 'fantastic'. I think, when I think of Punk bands, I go to British bands. The US hardcore scene came later, and IMO didn't have as wide a variety like UK Punk. Great list. Your lists always make me have to check out about 100 albums.
Hey Richie - thanks for this excelent list of Punk albums - it presented me (1st wave punkrocker in Sweden) with a bunch new favourites, like X, The Bugs, The Germs, Angry Samoans. (some U.S. punk/new wave bands did not really reach Europe that much in the 70s/80s). Here I will return the favor with some great Swedish punk bands: KSMB, Problem, Ebba Grön, Asta Kask, Imperiet - check them out when you have time!
I will check them out. There are so many European bands that were not know in the US. Since making this video I have bought some Finnish, Swedish and Japanese records. Thanks for the comment.
Epic video! I don't know if I could even attempt something so big. I knew this was gonna be great when you started off with the Zero Boys! I have about 50 or so of these. At least I had all your top ten. So much I never heard of, others I'd forgotten. That Doggy Style haven't thought of that record in decades. Makes me wanna do a punk video. You are the king!! Totally killer video!! Cheers, Jon
The top of this list wasn't difficult. Other than that the order isn't written in stone. In fact the Clash and Sex Pistols could have been moved a bit closer to the top. Maybe in the teens.
Holy Moley Rich. I have a lot of these, mostly represses, but you had me drooling. The Necros were from Michigan, for what it's worth. Some dingus commented that I show too much Oi and Hardcore punk on my channel. Tough luck chappie!
Brilliant video. Enjoyed it immensely, mostly obscure to me, with some classics. Made me think what my top 3 would be. 1. U.K. Subs (Another Kind of Blues), 2. Wayne County and the Electric Chairs (Storm the Gates of Heaven), 3. Resistance 77 (Survival of the Richest). Again a brilliant video. 🏴
Never saw them. I threw this list together pretty fast. I went through my Punk records and pulled my favorites. I divided them into three groups. I then started putting the three groups in order. If I did it now it would be a bit different. The Sex Pistols would be in the top ten, The Clash and Ramones debuts would be in the top ten or close to it. Also, I have bought some since that would be included. I should do a follow up video.
what a great video.. i owned a good deal many of those myself.. and as a so cal native, got to see some of those bands at great places like perkins.. olympic auditorium..cathay de grande..etc I need to go through my collection.. see if i have anything good
Back then there were not only good shows every week but almost every day. I did my first and last stage dive at Perkins Palace at a Suicidal Tendencies show. I ended up with a slight ankle fracture.
Rich, good video. I didn't think I had any punk albums, but you have given me a enough for my top 15: Pere Ubu, Mission Of Burma, Sex Gang Children, Samhain, Husker Du, Patti Smith, Stranglers, Joy Division, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Cramps, Christian Death, Los Angeles, Misfits, Black Flag. Thanks Chris
This is so great! It brings me back to my record store jobs. I love Marginal Man, Youth of Today -- I have a 90s reissue of Break Down the Walls and another I can't remember right now. Marginal Man! Didn't they only put out one album? Day Nasty, MDC...so much good stuff and good memories. Thanks for making this video. Saw a lot of rare stuff. ~Nicola
@@vinylrichie007 It got me into punk in the early 80's - also ''we are the league'' by the anti nowhere league - city baby attacked by rats is a hell of an album - so much better on vinyl , plastic surgery disasters is another one in my top 5

@@vinylrichie007 …..and no one else wanted to play I love this band, might not be top 100 album but they are hardcore and had a sense of humor……standout track…The Gravedigger
Love the Oi movement back in the day. Cockney Rejects, 4 Skins. I had a copy of the good bad and the 4 Skins. Just my opinion, but I’m thinking you could have cut this down to 70 and called it your top hardcore punk bands, since most of your pics were hardcore, especially since so many great bands were left out. The Buzzcocks, Sham 69, 999, The Jam, The Saints, The Undertones, Gang of Four, Generation X, The Stooges, and The Replacements.
I did say this list was limited to what I own. I now own the Saints and Generation X debuts. I would include them now. I do own The Buzzcocks and 999 but did not include them. If I owned The Jam debut or Gang Of Four debut I would have included them. Not sure about The Replacements or Undertones. I did not include The Stooges because they are prepunk. Thanks for watching and leaving a thoughtful comment. You have exposed some holes in my collection.
I kinda agree with you about Bad Brains. I'm a big fan of their hardcore tunes, but I don't care much for the reggae stuff. However, they are definitely a big influence on many bands that came later, including one of my all-time favorites Living Colour.
Thanks for watching. The Bad Brians have a couple of decent reggae songs but they are no Bob Marley. The reggae songs sure did ruin the flow at their live shows.
Awesome video, there's a lot of stuff I need to check out, in particular BATTALLION OF SAINTS who I just checked out on line - looks like I'm adding "Second Coming" to my want-list! I would have liked to have seen some Aussie stuff in your 100, but I know it's your collection and it's still a smoking hot list! Can't remember, did you have D.I. "Horse Bites Dog Cries"? Super album. cheers, leo
Impressive collection & top 100 list. Unfortunately I can't agree here. Not any 80s finnish hardcore bands. Where are Rattus, Kaaos, Terveet Kädet & Riistetyt? Ok, maybe I am watching through "finnish glasses" here.
I said at the beginning that this list is limited to the albums that I actually own and only one record from an artist. 80’s Finnish Hardcore has been unavailable until recently.
@@vinylrichie007 Yes you did said that. I know that in the 80s there was limited distribution of these. Some local records was even hard to get here. You had to order those from bands & distros. I recommend to you Svart Records reissues. I still have no Punk&Vomit reissue, so I can't say anything about their quality.
Hi Richie, have you heard the Australian punk band Rose Tattoo ? Highly recommend theyr first 3 albums " Rock n Roll Outlaws," " Assault & Battery "and "Scarred for Life "
This video is GOD! Wow, I enjoyed this one more then any video I have ever seen in the VC, Rich! I sat down with a cup of coffee and my notebook to write down all 100 bands. So glad I did, can't wait to check out the tons that was new to me, and it was really cool to see the ones I did know mixed in. And I only realized you hadn't shown BLACK FLAG until the instant before you showed it! LOL
Thanks for the kind words. I knew this video might be a bit long but it didn't seem like 36 minutes when I made it. As far as Black Flag is concerned, I wish they would release stuff from the vaults. The Damaged album was actually their 3rd attempt. They scraped the first and released their first EP when Keith Morris quit. They recorded the songs with Dez but didn't want to sing anymore. So Henry joined and they rerecorded the songs again. I know a lot of the tracks are on Everything Went Black but how cool would it be to have a Keith and Dez Damaged album. Greg Ginn made the band practice 5 or 6 days a week so you know there has to be some good practice stuff that was recorded. I have a couple of albums of demos. An official release would be cool.
Would like to see your list. I would recommend the Descendents' album Milo Goes To College. I think you might like it. Really well written songs with fantastic lyrics about normal life. Though my youngest daughter said all the songs sound the same.
@@vinylrichie007 our listening tastes change over the years, I’ve went from punk to electronic to metal…. With some nick cave in all his guises thrown in
@@vinylrichie007 thnx, V.R.. any video is a good video. please give Theatre of Hate (Kirk Brandon/ Billy Duffy) a spin, likewise Spear of Destiny (Kirk Brandon) 🤝
Awesome picks. How about making a drinking game video like Wyattwhim did with Goatowarex. In other words, watch this video and every time you say "fantastic", you have to have a drink. Then again, it would get pretty rough towards the end, especially when you get to your top 10. But what else can you say, that's exactly what those records are, fantastic.
I stopped on 50th, I will continue the video later. What a cool choice the Alien Sex Fiend one, my favourite goth/Batcave band, always listened to them from my younger punk age. About the Bad Brains, it's just my opinion, I don't think they are the best hardcore band ever, but I'm sure they invented it in the USA, while the Discharge and few others were doing the same in the UK. I will check out all your other videos, thanks for sharing your culture.
Great list! Nice to see some Dwarves in there too. First four Butthole Surfers albums are all fucking great. Few bands that I am familiar with but don't have anything from those. I would have thrown in some Articles of Faith, Social Distortion and Rikk Agnew's All by Myself. Again great list and thanks for sharing those!
I don't have any Articles of Faith on vinyl. I have Mommy's Little Monster but I don't think it is as good as their earlier 45's. I have Mainliner: Wreckage From The Past on CD. If I had it on vinyl it would have been on the list. I do have All By Myself and it is better than some of the albums.
Great list anyway. Takes a lots of work to do that so I am really thankful you did. So many albums that I love I saw first time on this vid. Rudi Peni, Surfers, Cramps, Final Conflict, Toxic Reasons, Gun Club... Flipper is one of my all time faves but can't expect everybody loving them. Wrote some albums down that I didn't have and will check those out so I probably found something new to dig as well.
i been listening to some hardcore punk of the 80s i been trying to see how can mix at with the doom of the 70s with the 80s and 90s seattle sound good vidoe
What a collection. You covered most if not all of them Richie. So good to see the Boston bands represented. There were some great punk bands to come out of this area. SSD Control, Pixies, Slapshot, Negative FX, Gang Green, The FU's, Burma, Jerry's Kids, etc. You showed so many great albums. I agree with your Pistols comment. I saw Suicidal T with Slapshot at the Channel in Boston in the mid eighties. Both bands were energetic. I remember people jumping on the stage for most of the shows. I forgot about Fear. Lee Ving was an LA legend was he not? I would have loved to have seen The Germs when they first started doing shows. > Excellent video Rich. I dug your top ten. The late seventies/early eighties was a great time in music history for punk~ Rob/Boston
Ah, you've got 'em written down. Amazing collection, you've probably forgotten more punk rock albums than I've ever heard of. I like Mission of Burma, I got a CD of theirs from the library a while back.I used to have that Violent Femmes LP but I gave it back to a thrift store several years before joining the VC. Stupid move. Saw a good documentary a while back about the guy from Crass. He runs a commune somewhere in the south of England, and anyone who wants to just go and live there can do so. He walks around stalk bollock naked all day though. I like the album titles and cover art of a lot of punk albums.
Sorry, I thought you must have got a written list of what numbers the albums were in your pile. If not, I honestly don't know how you kept track. Even if I do a top 20 and count backwards from 20, I've lost track of what number I'm on by the time I'm holding up the fourth or fifth album.
glad Reagan youth got kudos,saw them a lot in NJ east coast n gigs,fun live band early on..mdc was great to band before the west coast implant like a lot bands, the feederz,glad I saw ton these bands n then something, NYC,nj, to Calif,ioregon,keep on rocking pushing 60 n still play my wax...
Absolutely great list, bro. Great buncha actual records too. I painted these lyrics on my bedroom wall when I was a disillusioned rebellious teenager full of angst in a different lifetime. I can’t keep up I can’t keep up I can’t keep up Out of step With the world Love that album. Definitely one of my fave punk records.
Bloody Hell. What a collection. Plenty I never heard of but plenty I own in one form or another too. Great video, could be a reccord for the most records shown in a single video bar the ones where someone just flips though a box without any commentry.
holy wow so many chills and smiles in there I could write 10k words on that collection...but I'll spare you that fate and only say two things......one that Big Boys album was ridiculously diverse, powerful and way ahead of its time.....two is a "you forgot" Social Unrest's first album...lol
Who needs Rolling Stone to give us top lists?! Of course I only recognize a hand full but always enjoy seeing the depth of your collection and comments. SO cool you saw those early ST shows, part of history!!
Thanks for watching. That ST show I made my one and only stage dive. I slightly fractured my ankle. My ankle was sore after the show but the next morning I couldn't walk and I had to go to the hospital.
Excellent list. I was getting a bit worried when I didn't see a descendents album until the top ten. Lots of great albums here. Glad to see 7 seconds, adolescents, l7, offspring, ramones, etc. I thought you would have circle jerks ranked higher. No surprises on #1.
Thank you for posting! I know some of your records! Peroni is Italian beer! Italian beer in America? We don't drink Coors beer in Italy! We drink mostly German
Damn hadn’t heard of The hags nor Chron gen both equally badass. Good to see my fav the germs top 5 as well Cali punk in general dominants my personal favorites.
I was a little surprised that TSOL, Cock Sparrer , Radio Birdman and 45 Grave weren't mentioned (maybe you don't have their albums on LP)... anyway a solid list
I don't have Cock Sparrer or Radio Birdman on vinyl. TSOL should have made the list. I don't think their albums are great but certainly better than some that were on the list. 45 Grave were a favorite of mine live. Their albums don't come close to sounding as good as they did live.
My short Punk vid brought up a "suggested watch" for this vid... SO GLAD it did ! What a killer list man ! I recognized a little less than half of the titles. While I'm certainly no aficionado of 70s thru 80s punk, I was that metal dude that hung with a hardcore punk crowd who had connections in Hollywood and got any new release by any new punk band on the scene. So I was exposed to a wide variety of great punk. We would hang out at a buddies place and spin records and pirate some of them with blank cassettes, trade home made compilations, etc - great times man... unfortunately, like the Consumers album says: "All my friends are dead", so many of the punkers I hung with are gone... sucks. ANYWAYS.... Thanks for this vid ! I've had a list on my PC desktop for a while now called "A punk album per month" - and it has a list of albums I want to add to my collection, but can only afford one per month... now that I've watched this, the list is longer :-)
Grew up in Los Angeles in the 70s, then moved to the SoCal Hi Desert in my teen year - I am very thankful to have been in the epi-center of SO many great bands in the metal and punk genre.
saw the misfits slot in NJ, NYC,philly pa,in the late 78-81 era,was funny seeing them at early gig at max's Kansas city in NYC,saw fight n slot pursued, hey it was a newer scene, keep yet LPs nice they treat ya back. .
Vinyl Richie I'm in a cat 5 hurricane in South Florida right now,!!!water,heat,mold,baddd for records...just putting all my 7"s up n covering real good,alot trees can come through roof if uprooted saying 120mph wind....,🌀🌀🌀👍
really god choice, expecially the top 10 albums some of them are my all time favourite albums too like the Adolescent and back from samona, and of course Fear the record. but what's about wasted youth Reagan's in?
I think Reagan's In has some great songs but some that seem to be made up on the spot. Stalag 13 should have been on the list. I'm thinking of doing 101-150 but part of me feels that would be a bit too much.
Thanks Richie! This will be my reference video when I start exploring punk. I know very little about punk, so this will be very helpful. Take care! Nico
I have these albums too. Great minds think a like. BGK "nothing can go wrong" (1986) DRI "dealing with it" (1985) Ramones "rocket to russia" (1977) Sex Pistols "never mind the bollocks" (1977) The Cramps "songs the lord taught us" (1980) Dead Kennedys "fresh fruit for rotting vegetables" (1980) Suicidal Tendencies "self titled" (1983)
Fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic...not sure how you can pick albums and not know the titles if them ...fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic...no Dead Boys , Stiff Little Fingers , UK Subs...fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic...no Jam , Siouxsie ...fantastic fantastic fantastic...
I've been thinking of doing another video showing 50 Punk albums. It would be albums that I should have included in this video. Also albums that didn't quite make my topp 100 and albums that I have picked up since. A top 20 Punk comp list sounds like a better idea. I'm going to do it. Thanks for watching.
Thought this was Milo when I click on it lol, great video man.
That is funny.

If I owned The Jam debut or Gang Of Four debut I would have included them. Not sure about The Replacements or Undertones. I did not include The Stooges because they are prepunk. Thanks for watching and leaving a thoughtful comment. You have exposed some holes in my collection.
Fantastic review. So jealous of your collection. Thanks man. My fave line: "#10. Best punk album ever". ha!
It's a bit late but thanks for watching.
Fantastic video!
Thanks for watching
Wow. Reliving my punk younger self. Thanks
I kinda agree with you about Bad Brains. I'm a big fan of their hardcore tunes, but I don't care much for the reggae stuff. However, they are definitely a big influence on many bands that came later, including one of my all-time favorites Living Colour.
Thanks for watching. The Bad Brians have a couple of decent reggae songs but they are no Bob Marley. The reggae songs sure did ruin the flow at their live shows.
Stellar video. Such a blast going through it. I’m lucky to have quite a few of these myself! Probably 35% at least.
Thanks for watching
Awesome video, there's a lot of stuff I need to check out, in particular BATTALLION OF SAINTS who I just checked out on line - looks like I'm adding "Second Coming" to my want-list!
I would have liked to have seen some Aussie stuff in your 100, but I know it's your collection and it's still a smoking hot list! Can't remember, did you have D.I. "Horse Bites Dog Cries"? Super album. cheers, leo
I only own a few Australian Punk albums. The Saints and Radio Birdman would be in my top 100 if I had them on vinyl.
Yet at least the hard on s or saints my favourite Oz band Brisbane band called anger motion aim still a great vid peace and love lloydy
Impressive collection & top 100 list. Unfortunately I can't agree here. Not any 80s finnish hardcore bands. Where are Rattus, Kaaos, Terveet Kädet & Riistetyt? Ok, maybe I am watching through "finnish glasses" here.
I said at the beginning that this list is limited to the albums that I actually own and only one record from an artist. 80’s Finnish Hardcore has been unavailable until recently.
@@vinylrichie007 Yes you did said that. I know that in the 80s there was limited distribution of these. Some local records was even hard to get here. You had to order those from bands & distros. I recommend to you Svart Records reissues. I still have no Punk&Vomit reissue, so I can't say anything about their quality.
@@TommysVinylnaut Havoc Records have recently released some Finnish reissues.
@@TommysVinylnaut I will check out Svart.
The postage will be expensive with Svart. Give me a list of some band names and I will search them out. I now have a few Finnish albums and 7”s.
Hi Richie, have you heard the Australian punk band Rose Tattoo ? Highly recommend theyr first 3 albums " Rock n Roll Outlaws," " Assault & Battery "and "Scarred for Life "
Just saw this comment. I will check out Rose Tattoo.
Rose tattoo?, You must be joking or you don't know what punk is.
Have you heard of gang green? Check out their albums another wasted night and older Budweiser!
This video is GOD! Wow, I enjoyed this one more then any video I have ever seen in the VC, Rich! I sat down with a cup of coffee and my notebook to write down all 100 bands. So glad I did, can't wait to check out the tons that was new to me, and it was really cool to see the ones I did know mixed in. And I only realized you hadn't shown BLACK FLAG until the instant before you showed it! LOL
Thanks for the kind words. I knew this video might be a bit long but it didn't seem like 36 minutes when I made it. As far as Black Flag is concerned, I wish they would release stuff from the vaults. The Damaged album was actually their 3rd attempt. They scraped the first and released their first EP when Keith Morris quit. They recorded the songs with Dez but didn't want to sing anymore. So Henry joined and they rerecorded the songs again. I know a lot of the tracks are on Everything Went Black but how cool would it be to have a Keith and Dez Damaged album. Greg Ginn made the band practice 5 or 6 days a week so you know there has to be some good practice stuff that was recorded. I have a couple of albums of demos. An official release would be cool.
Great to see this....you surely hit the harder ones. I'll come around and do a version. What is great is, 100 versions, and all will be unique.
Would like to see your list. I would recommend the Descendents' album Milo Goes To College. I think you might like it. Really well written songs with fantastic lyrics about normal life. Though my youngest daughter said all the songs sound the same.
Great collection, jealous much
Thanks for watching. If I did the video today it would be a bit different.
@@vinylrichie007 our listening tastes change over the years, I’ve went from punk to electronic to metal…. With some nick cave in all his guises thrown in
i'm a happy sub... 🤝... even though no mention of my favourite, Theatre of Hate. also, i thought S.P., 'N.M.T.B.' would be no.1.
I kind of rushed this video and didn’t give it much thought. Sex Pistols should be in top ten.
@@vinylrichie007 thnx, V.R.. any video is a good video. please give Theatre of Hate (Kirk Brandon/ Billy Duffy) a spin, likewise Spear of Destiny (Kirk Brandon) 🤝
Awesome picks. How about making a drinking game video like Wyattwhim did with Goatowarex. In other words, watch this video and every time you say "fantastic", you have to have a drink. Then again, it would get pretty rough towards the end, especially when you get to your top 10. But what else can you say, that's exactly what those records are, fantastic.
If you took a drink every time I said fantastic you would end up on the floor. I did get one phenomenol in there.
I stopped on 50th, I will continue the video later.
What a cool choice the Alien Sex Fiend one, my favourite goth/Batcave band, always listened to them from my younger punk age.
About the Bad Brains, it's just my opinion, I don't think they are the best hardcore band ever, but I'm sure they invented it in the USA, while the Discharge and few others were doing the same in the UK.
I will check out all your other videos, thanks for sharing your culture.
Hardcore started in LA. The first records were by Black Flag and Middle Class. I do like the Bad Brains but I agree they are not my favorite.
Great list! Nice to see some Dwarves in there too. First four Butthole Surfers albums are all fucking great. Few bands that I am familiar with but don't have anything from those. I would have thrown in some Articles of Faith, Social Distortion and Rikk Agnew's All by Myself. Again great list and thanks for sharing those!
I don't have any Articles of Faith on vinyl. I have Mommy's Little Monster but I don't think it is as good as their earlier 45's. I have Mainliner: Wreckage From The Past on CD. If I had it on vinyl it would have been on the list. I do have All By Myself and it is better than some of the albums.
Great list anyway. Takes a lots of work to do that so I am really thankful you did. So many albums that I love I saw first time on this vid. Rudi Peni, Surfers, Cramps, Final Conflict, Toxic Reasons, Gun Club... Flipper is one of my all time faves but can't expect everybody loving them. Wrote some albums down that I didn't have and will check those out so I probably found something new to dig as well.
17:00 I gotta disagree. I think Operation Ivy did it best mixing Ska with Punk.
Hi Richie you should have Superman Is Dead a punk rock band from Bali, please see my episode number 67 talking about this band. Thanks!
Superman Is Dead is a good name.
@@vinylrichie007 indeed and the music is fantastic. Thanks!
Smash (1994) is The Offspring's third album, not second. First one is the self-titled one (1989), after that came Ignition (1992).
@@mountaverage2706 Thank you. I have never heard the first Offspring. I need to check it out.
Saw seven seconds, gave thumbs up
i been listening to some hardcore punk of the 80s i been trying to see how can mix at with the doom of the 70s with the 80s and 90s seattle sound good vidoe
thanks for watching
Hey I got some 90's Northwest punk! Jesters of Chaos fuckin rules! I got a killer 90's punk collection on my channel dude!
You have such a great taste in punk music, I would of picked over half of what you had, awesome video. Cheers.
Thanks for watching
What a collection. You covered most if not all of them Richie. So good to see the Boston bands represented. There were some great punk bands to come out of this area. SSD Control, Pixies, Slapshot, Negative FX, Gang Green, The FU's, Burma, Jerry's Kids, etc. You showed so many great albums. I agree with your Pistols comment. I saw Suicidal T with Slapshot at the Channel in Boston in the mid eighties. Both bands were energetic. I remember people jumping on the stage for most of the shows. I forgot about Fear. Lee Ving was an LA legend was he not? I would have loved to have seen The Germs when they first started doing shows. > Excellent video Rich. I dug your top ten. The late seventies/early eighties was a great time in music history for punk~
Rob/Boston
I do have some holes. You mentioned three, SSD Control, Jerry's Kids and Gang Green.
Fuck i had forgotten about Burma, thank you!
god VS, best fucking album gotta go buy it now
Ah, you've got 'em written down. Amazing collection, you've probably forgotten more punk rock albums than I've ever heard of. I like Mission of Burma, I got a CD of theirs from the library a while back.I used to have that Violent Femmes LP but I gave it back to a thrift store several years before joining the VC. Stupid move. Saw a good documentary a while back about the guy from Crass. He runs a commune somewhere in the south of England, and anyone who wants to just go and live there can do so. He walks around stalk bollock naked all day though. I like the album titles and cover art of a lot of punk albums.
I think Punk has some of the most original cover art and album titles. Written down, I have no idea what you are talking about.
Sorry, I thought you must have got a written list of what numbers the albums were in your pile. If not, I honestly don't know how you kept track. Even if I do a top 20 and count backwards from 20, I've lost track of what number I'm on by the time I'm holding up the fourth or fifth album.
I made some numbered slips of paper.
Now that's what I call punk rock.
James Griffiths i call it "slips of paper" ha
glad Reagan youth got kudos,saw them a lot in NJ east coast n gigs,fun live band early on..mdc was great to band before the west coast implant like a lot bands, the feederz,glad I saw ton these bands n then something, NYC,nj, to Calif,ioregon,keep on rocking pushing 60 n still play my wax...
I never saw Regan Youth live. I did see MDC and they were great live. In fact none of their albums captured how good they were,
Vinyl Richie mdc was great live in like 81"-4 can vouch for that..they been doing some reunion shows past few years..
Absolutely great list, bro. Great buncha actual records too.
I painted these lyrics on my bedroom wall when I was a disillusioned rebellious teenager full of angst in a different lifetime.
I can’t keep up
I can’t keep up
I can’t keep up
Out of step
With the world
Love that album. Definitely one of my fave punk records.
Thanks for watching. Out Of Step is a personal favorite. Thanks for watching.
Bloody Hell. What a collection. Plenty I never heard of but plenty I own in one form or another too. Great video, could be a reccord for the most records shown in a single video bar the ones where someone just flips though a box without any commentry.
Thanks for watching and I apologize for say fantastic 100 times.
Has that No Tag record arrived yet?
Yes, I'll show it in one of my next videos.
Yes, I'll show it in one of my next videos.
very fun , thanks !!
Thanks
I need more of these, oonly have 10 or 15. Thanks for the education, maybe the weakest link in my collection
10 or 15 is more than most people have
holy wow so many chills and smiles in there I could write 10k words on that collection...but I'll spare you that fate and only say two things......one that Big Boys album was ridiculously diverse, powerful and way ahead of its time.....two is a "you forgot" Social Unrest's first album...lol
I didn’t have Social Unrest at the time but I recently picked it up.
Merry Christmas
That’s a pretty amazing list and collection, you didn’t even use anything from the same band twice.
I forgot to mention that I would only show one album per band. It would be a completely different list if I showed more than one album per band.
Who needs Rolling Stone to give us top lists?! Of course I only recognize a hand full but always enjoy seeing the depth of your collection and comments. SO cool you saw those early ST shows, part of history!!
Thanks for watching. That ST show I made my one and only stage dive. I slightly fractured my ankle. My ankle was sore after the show but the next morning I couldn't walk and I had to go to the hospital.
Excellent list. I was getting a bit worried when I didn't see a descendents album until the top ten. Lots of great albums here. Glad to see 7 seconds, adolescents, l7, offspring, ramones, etc. I thought you would have circle jerks ranked higher. No surprises on #1.
I guess I should have Circle Jerks rated a little higher.
If I made this list today the first Coathangers would be on the list.
Is the Dwarves the same band as the Blood, Guts, and Pussy Dwarves?
Yes
Thank you for posting! I know some of your records! Peroni is Italian beer! Italian beer in America? We don't drink Coors beer in Italy! We drink mostly German
Thanks for watching.
I have live 8 months in Austin TX city of music! It was fun!
Damn hadn’t heard of The hags nor Chron gen both equally badass. Good to see my fav the germs top 5 as well Cali punk in general dominants my personal favorites.
I like all types of Punk but Cali Punk rules.
Day-Glow abortions played in Halifax a month ago and unfortunately I didn't hear about it until it was too late ..
Ciao Richie, buona la Peroni ?
Thanks for watching
Awesome
thanks for watching
Love it!
Thanks for watching.
Excellent video
thanks for watching
I was a little surprised that TSOL, Cock Sparrer , Radio Birdman and 45 Grave weren't mentioned (maybe you don't have their albums on LP)... anyway a solid list
I don't have Cock Sparrer or Radio Birdman on vinyl. TSOL should have made the list. I don't think their albums are great but certainly better than some that were on the list. 45 Grave were a favorite of mine live. Their albums don't come close to sounding as good as they did live.
My short Punk vid brought up a "suggested watch" for this vid... SO GLAD it did ! What a killer list man ! I recognized a little less than half of the titles. While I'm certainly no aficionado of 70s thru 80s punk, I was that metal dude that hung with a hardcore punk crowd who had connections in Hollywood and got any new release by any new punk band on the scene. So I was exposed to a wide variety of great punk. We would hang out at a buddies place and spin records and pirate some of them with blank cassettes, trade home made compilations, etc - great times man... unfortunately, like the Consumers album says: "All my friends are dead", so many of the punkers I hung with are gone... sucks. ANYWAYS.... Thanks for this vid ! I've had a list on my PC desktop for a while now called "A punk album per month" - and it has a list of albums I want to add to my collection, but can only afford one per month... now that I've watched this, the list is longer :-)
So Cal was the place to be for 80's Punk.
Grew up in Los Angeles in the 70s, then moved to the SoCal Hi Desert in my teen year - I am very thankful to have been in the epi-center of SO many great bands in the metal and punk genre.
Do you have any angelic upstarts records or any uk subs records and have you heard serious drinking
I only have them on 7". Charlie Harper was very cool. He would hang out and talk after shows.
saw the misfits slot in NJ, NYC,philly pa,in the late 78-81 era,was funny seeing them at early gig at max's Kansas city in NYC,saw fight n slot pursued, hey it was a newer scene, keep yet LPs nice they treat ya back. .
I always took care of my records. I was burned once. That is all it took.
Vinyl Richie I'm in a cat 5 hurricane in South Florida right now,!!!water,heat,mold,baddd for records...just putting all my 7"s up n covering real good,alot trees can come through roof if uprooted saying 120mph wind....,🌀🌀🌀👍
Thank you for this!
thanks for watching
Great video Rich!
I love you man.
Fantastic!
Maybe not fantastic but better than okay. Thanks for watching.
What about Damned/Machine gun etiguette . Classic album 😎
That is the one Damned album that I do not own.
really god choice, expecially the top 10 albums some of them are my all time favourite albums too like the Adolescent and back from samona, and of course Fear the record. but what's about wasted youth Reagan's in?
I think Reagan's In has some great songs but some that seem to be made up on the spot. Stalag 13 should have been on the list. I'm thinking of doing 101-150 but part of me feels that would be a bit too much.
Thanks Richie! This will be my reference video when I start exploring punk. I know very little about punk, so this will be very helpful. Take care!
Nico
Make sure you check it out before you buy. Some of this stuff is not for everyone.
Hey man, how could you forget the Plasmatics???
They missed it by this much.👌
Thats Wendy o? I've never listened are they good
@@leahflower9924 They are okay.
Wow! Great 100 punk albums, did I blink & miss it,or was there not a one Ramones album in the whole bunch???????
I had the Ramones 3rd album in there. I could have shown any of their first four albums.
Pere Ubu nice! often overlooked
Thanks for watching
My top list are:
#1 Riot squad - No Potential Threat
#2 GBH All albums between -81 to -83
I don’t have a Riot Squad album. The early GBH are the best but I like the others that I have heard. Thanks for the comment.
I don't know riot squad I like vice squad
Wow 100 best by Vinyl Ritchie !!!!!!!!!!!Speechless................Needs to be shown at schools.................
That is funny. Thanks for watching.
I have these albums too. Great minds think a like.
BGK "nothing can go wrong" (1986)
DRI "dealing with it" (1985)
Ramones "rocket to russia" (1977)
Sex Pistols "never mind the bollocks" (1977)
The Cramps "songs the lord taught us" (1980)
Dead Kennedys "fresh fruit for rotting vegetables" (1980)
Suicidal Tendencies "self titled" (1983)
I'm not sure my mind is great but thanks for watching.
Nice list!
Thanks for watching
Enjoyed this

Thanks a lot - awesome!
Thanks for watching
Fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic...not sure how you can pick albums and not know the titles if them ...fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic...no Dead Boys , Stiff Little Fingers , UK Subs...fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic fantastic...no Jam , Siouxsie ...fantastic fantastic fantastic...
If I did the list today it would be a bit different. Dead Boys and Siouxsie would be included. Thanks for watching.
vinyl rich would u do a top 20 punk compilation list
I've been thinking of doing another video showing 50 Punk albums. It would be albums that I should have included in this video. Also albums that didn't quite make my topp 100 and albums that I have picked up since.
A top 20 Punk comp list sounds like a better idea. I'm going to do it.
Thanks for watching.
