Au dernier moment avant de repartir, alors que nous étions déjà tous dans la voiture, nous nous sommes arrêtés, pour prendre de l'essence sûrement, et j'ai demandé à sortir pour aller fûreter rapidement dans le rayon presse du magasin devant lequel nous étions. J'en suis revenu, délesté de 6 francs, avec dans les mains le n° 116 du magazine Best, daté de mars 1978 et donc sorti courant février. Cela faisait sûrement une bonne année que j'avais commencé à m'intéresser sérieusement à la musique, en achetant plus de disques, en écoutant la radio, en en discutant avec les copains, et en leur empruntant disques et revues, mais, à presque quinze ans, c'est la première fois que j'ai acheté en kiosque au moment de sa sortie l'un des deux titres phares de la presse rock de l'époque, Rock & Folk et Best.

  • 1975-1985 Du Punk a La New Wave
    19751975----19851985 Du Punk à la New Wave Christophe DANIEL Médiathèque Départementale de Haute-Saône Service Musique & Multimédia Introduction générale L’idée d’une journée de formation sur cette décennie 1975-1985 vient d’un simple constat. Quand on parle de musique des années 80, il est de bon ton de froncer le nez. On met rapidement en évidence la nullité supposée de ces années là en les comparant avec la richesse du rock et de la pop des 60’s. Pourquoi un tel ostracisme ? En partie parce que les mouvements punk et new wave ont été passés sous silence en France. Soigneusement dédaignés par une génération de journalistes spécialisés, baby boomers arrivés aux affaires dans les années 60, ces nouveaux genres musicaux passèrent relativement inaperçu du grand public. De plus, contrairement aux pays anglo-saxons, la France n’avait pas vraiment d’émissions de radio ou de télévisions dédiées aux musiques actuelles. Cela impliquait un certain retard concernant le rock par exemple. Ce retard était accentué par la distribution des disques étrangers en France. Le meilleur des albums de rock anglais pouvait mettre des années pour arriver dans un bac de disques français car tout simplement pas édité par nos maisons de disques hexagonales. Le fan de rock pendant les années 70 se fournit en import, lit la presse anglaise et voyage beaucoup ! Résultat, les médias ne diffusent que des niaiseries formatées par les maisons de disque et l’on ne se souvient ainsi que de tubes pathétiques ressassés ad nauseam dans ces fameuses « soirées années 80 ». Or si l’on se penche quelques instants sur l’histoire du rock des années 1975-1985, on découvre des chefs d’œuvres tous aussi incontournables que ceux de la période 1960-1970.

    POST PUNK 198O When my interest in post-punk blossomed into a bit of an obsession, my mind fixed on two years: 1979, which seemed to have a disproportionate number of the period-defining all-time-great LPs; and 1981, which had its fair share of great albums by big names, but more significantly was seemingly endless in its supply of lesser-knowns of incredible quality and diversity. For this reason, I focused first on 1981 in the eponymous ‘1981’ box set I made between 2003 and 2004, that consisted of nine themed CD-length mixes and a whole additional mp3 “briefcase” disc, which in total featured hundreds of bands and artists. But I’d actually first made a 3-mix 1979 set for friends the year before, which finally blossomed into the (relatively) tight ‘1979: Post-Punk’ set from 2017. For whatever reason, I’d subconsciously always thought of 1980 as sort of the breather between these two different high-water-mark years. Finally, I’ve set out to delve more consciously into that elusive year of post-punk. The result of my reconsideration is this, the final box-set of a trilogy of explorations: ‘Post Punk 1980’. I could perhaps say a slightly lower proportion of my all-time favorite post- punk/new-wave/etc. albums were released in 1980, the kernel of truth in the way I’d thought of the year. But, unsurprisingly, the bigger realization as I assembled this collection was that 1980 was in no way, shape or form a down year. In fact, the explosion of quality-and-quantity nearly matches 1981.
