Various – Strong Love: Songs Of Gay Liberation 1972-1981 Vinyl (Pink LP)

Chapter Music’s groundbreaking 2012 compilation gets its first-ever vinyl release—on pink vinyl! Strong Love celebrates a bold wave of openly gay songwriting that emerged after the Stonewall riots, capturing the raw, heartfelt sounds of 1970s underground artists.

Spanning 15 rare tracks—ranging from folk and soul to glam and synth-rock—the compilation highlights musicians who risked everything for honest expression, often releasing music independently in a hostile industry. These songs may be little known, but they’re full of vision, courage, and pride.

Compiled by Chapter’s Guy Blackman with liner notes from Richard Dworkin, Strong Love is a vital tribute to queer pioneers who helped shape music history.
