Album

A Brief History of the Twentieth Century is the first compilation album by Gang of Four. It was released in December 1990. The liner notes are by Greil Marcus. Tracks 1-6 are from the album Entertainment 1979. Track 7 is from the Yellow EP 1980. Tracks 9-11 are from the album Solid Gold 1981. Tracks 8 and 12-13 are from the EP Another DayAnother Dollar 1982. Tracks 14-17 and 20 are from the album Songs of the Free 1982. Tracks 18-19 are from the album Hard 1983. Gang of Four emerged from the wreckage of punk rock in the early '80s with a sound all their own. Characterized by blatantly political lyrics that were chanted, sung, and yelled over spare, funky drumbeats and Andy Gill's scratch-and-kill guitar, the Gang's particular brand of angular dance punk was as refreshing as ice water in the face, and as this collection shows, still holds up well almost 20 years later.

Original personnel were singer Jon King, guitarist Andy Gill, bass guitarist Dave Allen and drummer Hugo Burnham. They were fully active from 1977 to 1984, and then re-emerged twice in the 1990s with King and Gill. In 2005, the original lineup reunited. The group had a single in the British Top 60 with At Home He's A Tourist in 1979, which was blacklisted by Top Of The Pops for its use of the relatively innocuous term rubbers.

Features Song Lyrics for Gang of Four's A Brief History of the Twentieth Century album. Gang Of Four - A Brief History Of The Twentieth Century Album. Artist: Gang of Four. Album: A Brief History Of The Twentieth Century. A Brief History of The 20th Century' does an excellent job of collating the singles and key album tracks from Gang of Four's most well-known and vital period, from the late 70s until the early 80s. Although the band broke up and reformed several times, these years contain their essential work. Wisely, the commercial New Wave of 'Hard' is basically airbrushed out of the band's history, with only two tracks making the cut. The Gang of Four are one of those wonderful bands that somehow managed to fall betwen the cracks nad not be recognized during their original lifespan for their genius. Their influence is far reaching, and the quality of their own work is impeccable. Gang Of Four album bestography.
