Chelsea

Chelsea (red)

Formed in 1976, legendary punk outfit Chelsea was assembled by the owners of the Acme Attractions boutique with Gene October as frontman; guitarist Billy Idol, bassist Tony James and drummer John Towe soon split to form Generation X, but their loss was Chelseas gain, with debut single Right To Work rated one of the best punk songs of all time. Though their self-titled debut LP didnt surface until 1979, when punk was waning, there is plenty to savour in Octobers forceful vocals and James Stevensons powerful guitar licks, plus a plausible take of Jimmy Cliffs Many Rivers To Cross. A punk classic, ripe for rediscovery!
