EARLY PUNK SIGHTING!
"People try to put us down
Just because we get around
Things they do look awful cold
Yeah, I hope I die before I get old
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby"
Sounds pretty punk to me. 1965...
The Who, Stooges, New York Dolls: forefathers of punk
Ramones: when punk became punk
The Sex Pistols and Clash: don't count because neither were punk. The Clash were straight-up rock-and-roll with the occasional worldbeat influence, and the Sex Pistols were a boy band assembled by a fashion designer.
Biased opinion don't lie...
