not that I really care... someone might, but i don't...
I know Richard Hell always goes on about inventing the punk look in 1975 - but MM and VW really did create something special. There's always more to a musical revolution than just the sounds - take away the light shows and the posters and Haight-Ashbury wasn't nearly so exciting.
First time I ever saw the Pistols was on telly in late '76 - and I know the whole LOOK of the Pistols blew my tiny mind as much as the sounds. My life truly did change from that moment, I kid you not.
...and it was, at least partly, due to MM.
