Release notes

The definitive retrospective of late ’70s South African punk luminaries Wild Youth and offshoot band the Gay Marines, Slap Gat’n Roll combines both groups’ original recordings with demos and a late ’80s Gay Marines rarity.

Wild Youth were the first punk band in South Africa active from 1977-1980 and released the first South African punk single ‘Wot ‘bout me?’ – arguably the most collectable South African release of all time.

Limited to 300.
