By the way, punk was a complete joke, Johnny Rotten from the Sex Pistols was an Art History major who created it to be a new type of art. That's hardly accurate either, Stan. It was Malcolm McLaren's 'art-project' (if you believe his own revisionist bollocks), John Lydon just happened to be the petulant brat/subversive genius/foolish puppet(*) at the centre of it all. For the definitive story on the London Punk scene, you can't go wrong with Jon Savage's 'England's Dreaming'. (*delete as appropriate) |

For the definitive story on the London Punk scene, you can't go wrong with Jon Savage's 'England's Dreaming' Class book, that. He contributed some fantastic liner notes for Joy Division's 'Heart and Soul' collection. Speaking of which, I got my original Factory print of 'Unknown Pleasures' this morning - sent shivers down my spine when I played it |

Ah, yes, that's it then. Thanks for the correction!
