Post Punk Part 1:
I recently posted the song ‘Typical Girls’ by The Slits in the “Songs, Anthems, And Music For Women” thread. A few years back their guitarist Viv Albertine said she was autistic and probably the rest of the band was also. The following song was endlessly played on my local college radio station around 1980 or so.
