Summary
The story of punk, in all its vibrant glory, told for the first time in the words of those who were there.
‘To see The Clash on the White Riot tour was like discovering how to be a rock star- you just did it yourself. You didn’t wait for someone to come and discover you. That was the most important thing that came out of punk… We came home and we cut our hair and bought skinny trousers. It was year zero. That was the moment for me’ Billy Bragg
Punk Rock is a book like no other…
