Punk wasn't invented it evolved and it didn't come into being as *punk* until the Sex pistols came along.

Whatever came before it or influenced it means sod all, Lydon was influenced by Hawkwind & Van Der Graff Generator. shall we call those proto punk bands too?

You're just retro-actively applying a label to when it didn't exist.
