Typical Girls: Women in Punk/Post-Punk/Underground Music (Circa 1975-1980s)

[John Kertland <jkertland AT yahoo.co.uk>]

Hi Dan

 

Love the blog
!!

 

Bloody hell-we share the same record collection-)

 

OMD at Shrewsbury Music Hall, 1980 just 2 weeks after the first OMD album-

I knew then that they were the tops and whetever happened later it didn't really matter-

same re Robert Rental and Double Heart-classic.....I'd love to do a show too-
put a good word in for me!

 

Great stuff

 

Cheers

 

John
