In December 1973, Hilly Kristal rebranded his roots music bar to CBGB, unknowingly sparking a cultural revolution. While Hilly was famously indifferent to the bands sounds, his scruffy little club became the epicenter of a new musical era.
This four-CD collection captures the diverse sounds that followed the original pioneers:
No Wave Sonic Youth, Mars, DNA, Bush Tetras
Post-Punk Ritual Tension, Unknown Gender, Khmer Rouge
Mutant Funk & R&B James Chance & The Contortions, Mink DeVille
Hardcore Punk Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Beastie Boys
Power Pop The dBs, The Miamis, The Paley Brothers
Art-Rock Dark Day, The Revelons, Jeff and Jane Hudson

While the icons are all here, this compilation also revives dozens of unfairly forgotten acts. From one-off demos to rare 45s, these tracks capture the innovation, wit, and joy of a moment in time.
