Not a huge fan of punk but a few bands i did listen too. The energy of punk is its biggest asset. Some of it unfortunately the talent wasnt up snuff (ala sex pistols). Really a little bit precursors to the genres golden age of punk.

I did like patti smith, mc5 and lou reed - imho horses and kick out the jams live lp high quality. And reeds live rocknroll animal lp is classic stuff. In the heyday, i did like the clash too.

Now The Ramones were a good American punk band.

Post by: HornbyDuke on August 15, 2023, 11:11:06 AM: Hey hey lets go...Ramones definitely punk and had an impact on evolution of music scene. Wasnt a huge fan but some talent there. Rawness of sound biggest asset imho.

Is that the band whose frontman had the horrific dental issues?

Post by: Lance on August 15, 2023, 12:41:23 PM: Yep....Shane MacGowan. Kind of a loose cannon but a great front man. I don't know how some of these people are still alive.

Good sound, and good vibe. Music today is all about a look, and less about the sound.

The greatest music in history is soul and funk music from the late 50's to the mid 70's.

Damn straight!

All though edgy for the day, George Clinton/ Parliament Funk, and his various other personas were all interesting listens.

I'm not so sure that all of us Beatlemaniacs can agree w/ cavilierly anointing soul over rock-n-roll
