Beginning in 1961 with drag queens and cap records on tiny labels, this compilation passes through the mid 60’s pop, 70’s soul, glitter rock, and punk.

24 tracks (compiled by Jon Savage) featuring classics by such monsters as The Kinks and The Ramones, to little known discoveries by Chris Robinson, The Miracle, Curt Boettcher. And the last track by Sylvester, ‘You Make Me Feel’ (the first international hit by an out gay performer) even adds a little punk.This comp tells the hidden history of gay pop music.
