Good Thread. Read through it all and probably agree with most of what plinth said in his longish post a couple of pages back. Strange in a 10 page thread on punk that there is no mention of bands such as Stranglers, Damned, Buzzcocks, The Saints, but Tom Robinson was hailed as a good old punk because he was openly gay...... FFS! Listening to some Hank 111 at the moment, I think his stuff is classed as HellBilly, but it is just a country variation of punk, or is it?
