The Year Punk Broke: 25 years later

noisereductions · 07.31.2017, 03:14 PM

I just read something about how there's going to be a screening of The Year Punk Broke in London soon to celebrate 25 year anniversary. That got me to thinking about something I've wondered for years... why was there never a soundtrack release? It seems so obvious: put all those performances on a soundtrack. Maybe licensing was too tricky?

Probably. If Nirvana had never gotten "famous" famous then it would have been easier to do (i.e. cheaper)

also could be interesting to do a The Year Punk Broke made in U.K...but that's another story

Shame I couldn't go to the screening/Q&A because I had family visiting on that date. I forwarded the details to Melly and I think he went.
