Seven Ages Of Rock BBC 2 now - Punk

[Arthur]

Quite surprised this man hasn't got a mention yet!?!

[Stinkers Bridge]

The man is a genius.

My favourite longplayer is his seminal 'You don't need a jacket' offering.

He did last week (in a very minor way) as part of the original Genesis.

Well that wasn't last nights episode about punk then was it you pillock!!

 

[tedebear]

I though the punk one was a little ummm boring - to say the least - too much talking not enough.. ermmm punking...

 

[Stinkers Bridge]

It's pretty much been ignored in most of the history books that Phil Collins invented Punk Rock.

He also held the land speed record for a few weeks after going well quick at Coniston at some point.
This record was swiftly broken though by the Beverley Sisters in their revolutionary 'Swankmaster' car.

[Icy Gull]

Didn't even bother to watch this week, punk really doesn't do it for me

No mention of the Stranglers!?

Read the thread title you ****!

I couldn't give a f*** about last weeks episode!

 

[London Calling]

No mention of the Stranglers!?

A reasonable band, but did not actually give added value to the punk movement.

Not the first, not the most political, not the first album, not the first single, not the mose outrageaous, just a reasonable band.

Who could actually blend into 2007 music really easily and wouldn't seem outdated.

Unlike a lot of the punk music.

Wow, you are an angry young man

He was in it last week but he was not part of the original Genesis (I believe he was the third or fourth drummer) - as the programme made quite clear. Had you nodded off by then?

 

[Brighton Breezy]

The Sex Pistols and The Buzzcocks were VITAL.

The Ramones were GASH.

Must have but Genesis and most of the bands featured in that episode have that effect on me.

It's argued that the New York Dolls were the original punks but they could play their instruments quite well. The Ramones brought on the minimalistic sound that most punk bands (the Stranglers excepted) used and are far from GASH as you put it.

That point was made by the program I thought.

 

[London Calling]

"New York Johnny said, you should get to know your town, just like we do".

The Clash, honouring Johnny Ramone.

Its not argued that NYDs were the FIRST punk band they were FACT ..

and how can Morris say The Ramones were gash, idiot !!!

 

[Brighton Breezy]

The Clash, The Sex Pistols and The Buzzcocks were all better.

The Ramones and NYD were probably OK I just hate American bands.
