If darker aspects of life are influence for punk I could also nominate Billie Holiday and the singers of african american folk music as the first punk rockers. Really african americans have always tended to use off kilter rythms and synocpation in there music so maybe its true that punk goes all the way back to the slaveships, and the cotten fields of Georgia. This argument could go on forever, and no progressis made. Who cares who the first band was anymore, its here thats the past its over.
