In this episode, I do a follow-up to Episode 005 - What is Post-punk and welcome to the Post-punk Heartstrings State of Mind– In that episode, I gave my own personal definition of post-punk and offered my pick for the first post-punk album released. After the episode, I received the following feedback from a listener: “Enjoyed this episode! I'd have been interested in more explication on what are the hallmarks of post-punk and why Television, Talking Heads, etc. were not counted. What exactly were the classic rock sounds you heard to keep them from being counted as a true post-punk album.” So, I decided to do a follow-up episode to explain a little more and provide some examples of why I excluded some of the releases the listener mentioned.
Artists/albums covered are:
Television – Marquee Moon – 1977
Taking Heads – Talking Heads – 1977
Ultravox – Ha! Ha! Ha! – 1977
White Music – XTC – 1978
Magazine – Real Life – 1978

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
