Punk was a movement or slice of time like anything else albeit more overglorified than most im gettin old the stuff seems tame now bring on elp and kc!
punk was an assault on disco
punk was an assault on disco and thankfully killed the beast =).
i grew up listening to and loving the stuff. as others have said...it wasn't about the "music". it was a culture thing. never really liked the sex pistols but bands like velvet underground, joy division, iggy pop and the romones are still some of my oldy favorites. these guys actually knew how to write and perform. i was very fortunate to see them all live. i'll never forget a joy division show i saw in the UK.....i remember it like it was yesterday. talk about atmosphere and passion!. incredible!
every time i think about this stuff, i gotta smile.
