A collection of reminiscences by many of the movers and shakers of the Punk Rock explosion of the late 1970s, including John Lydon, Mick Jones, Captain Sensible, Poly Styrene and Mark Perry. The book begins at the turn of the 1970s so we get an idea of what the contributors listened to in those days, interesting enough in itself, but it's from 1976 onwards when events really move up a gear. And it's all there: the gigs in grotty, half empty venues, the violence, the gobbing, the infamous Sex Pistols interview with Bill Grundy, the antipathy to Margaret Thatcher's government and so on. Robb provides an index of contributors and the bands they played in (in case you'd forgotten) and the Oral History is littered with footnotes which can prove a distraction in some books, but not this one; and I was left with a real feeling of time and place. Thoroughly enjoyable, funny in parts and absolutely essential reading for anyone interested in Punk Rock. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
