Singles Going Steady
by Buzzcocks
The 226th greatest album of all time
Singles Going Steady is a 1979 compilation album by Buzzcocks that assembles their early singles and non-album tracks from the late 1970s. Musically it pairs punk urgency with strong pop melodies and concise, hook-driven songwriting, delivered through bright, guitar-forward arrangements and direct vocals by Pete Shelley and Steve Diggle. The collection illustrates the band's blend of raw punk energy and melodic sensibility that helped shape later pop-punk and power pop approaches.
