Good old Vancouver Punk................that Payolas is fun to see, Bob Rock looks like a teenager for gods sake.

you guys have forgotten that punk came out in Australia in 1976 before we even knew it was punk.  The Saints brought it to England about a year later.

Check out "I'm Stranded"

[FuzzFace]

No way... Iggy Pop INVENTED the Beatles!

[Greeny]

And these guys invented Iggy and MC5, lol.

The Sonics... in 1966!

got your dander up eh??

Not at all, lol. The whole 'who invented punk' thing is a very tricky subject. Some will say MC5 and the Stooges then trace a line to The Ramones and Johnny Thunders / New York Dolls.

The Ramones started up in 1974 - they were 'punk' before any of the Sex Pistols / Damned stuff hit Britain in 1976.

I think The Sonics had the punk ethos and rough-and-ready sound in the mid 60's though.

Sorry - I wasn't trying to be confrontational :-)
