Deep Dives and Deep Cuts: the History of Punk, Post-punk and New Wave (1976-1986)
MusicHistory
(Originally released August 2022) Acclaimed music photographer Michael Grecco takes the lads deep down the rabbit hole to discover some long forgotten gems from Boston's 70-80s punk scene. Some of these are so obscure we needed two playlists to cover them all. Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3y4wQnn -- YouTube: https://bit.ly/3z9SeZF

Join Rob and Joseph as they chronologically discuss all the notable albums of the punk/new wave movement. From the messy, anarchic noise of the early 70’s proto-punk rockers to the tired, polished death-rattles of the mid-80’s corporate synth-poppers, no stone goes unturned in their quest to fully examine the birth, life and death of “the wave” that produced some of the most beloved songs in modern popular music.
