All The Young Punks is the 3rd Volume of the series in which famous people and people in bands are gently pushed aside to make way for the voices of the rest of us - Punk Rockers In Their Own Words, the real stories of punk. From the 70s to the present day and stretching all around the world, this is the the punk rockers - not controlled in the body or in the mind. "I also remember a group of mates finding an abandoned copy of the Sex Pistols file in a park and reading it like it was a porn mag or something." "One of my older sisters, Luisa, was a punk punk - bin liner dresses; new wave boyfriend who drove a bubble car and had odd socks; she dyed her hair orange and the bus conductor told her that "that'll be 10p for you and 10 for the parrot." I felt a sense , as a Gay Outsider, in finally belonging to something that was ours. Punk was inclusive and seemed to offer young Gays a way of self expression that was uniquely theirs. "punks were starting to appear at the school I attended, too, and following all my previous years of hating music but loving horror/sci-fi films and books, the way punks looked just tapped into a similar sensibility. They resembled the monsters, aliens and creatures I already somehow loved and identified with." Until punk happened, although I was always sociable and had many good friends, I felt somehow outside of everything. "Punk was perfect for people like me; people who felt like me. I'd often felt as I was growing up that I was just on the edge of everything, that I didn't quite fit in somehow. But now I fitted right in, ta very much; it was everyone else who didn't, and I liked it. A lot." "Looking back I just can't see how a shy and naïve teenage boy such as me could have suddenly started dressing in such an anti-social stick-out-like-a-sore-thumb way. It must have been the hormones." "When I first bought Never Mind the Bollocks, my dad heard it and smashed the record to bits. I went out and bought it again, and only played it when he wasn't around." "I think the simple truth is that we were all caught up, engulfed and swept along by an unseen, magical current of energy. Some of us floundered, some of us drowned, and some us learned how to surf that wave" I think I actually 'identified' with punk before I even had any punk records. After getting to the end of side two, it was like a bomb had gone off in my head The days in my middle teens with sex, drugs and violence totally suck, but I survived thanks to punk rock. I still think 'Get up and do it' regardless of age Every week I'd receive letters and packages of records or tapes from America, Poland, Finland, Brazil drinking 6 packs in my car behind the Whisky A Go Go night club, and late nights in Barney's Beanery. We made DIY amps, recorded rehearsals on a crappy tape recorder and we knocked on doors - just like Jehovah's Witnesses - in the hope someone would be ok to buy it. We sold one. haha! It did not lead to glorious, life-affirming self-empowerment. To the contrary, a lot of it but made me feel even more separated and freakish from my surroundings When bad-girl attitude and unhealthiness of punk rock made me uncomfortable, I got to know Crass and I thought this was the punk I had been looking for. Then, Throbbing Gristle made me feel positive about my own kinkiness and express it through music and art. Since then, I've always been a feminist and an anarchist. It made me realise that pissing people off was really, really good fun. Punk celebrated the outsider, the ostracised and the disconnected, as well as embracing the absurd, the extreme, being independent, and notions of trying to be honest and true to one's self as much as possible. The revolution didn't start in Oxford Street so instead I'd walk to the train station with everybody else

As noted in the description of the first volume of this book, every punk book seems to be about the bands, about the 'faces', about the music. Volume 2 of All The Young Punks brings you more stories from the frontline, from the trenches. Stories from the foot soldiers who made punk what it was without turning it into a career. Born too late for the inner circle, but shining like a thousand comets nonetheless - this is the story of the punks. “It felt like pure energy - like a Sherbet Dip, when you have the first mouthful and your face scrunches up” “Punk Rock had saved me and I dedicated myself to it's glory” “there was music I could relate to for when I was feeling sad, happy, funky or whatever, but nothing for when I felt angry... until THIS.” “Then there was the day a bunch of us painted my mate's Woolworths acoustic guitar white then set light to it in the local park while another mate filmed it with his dad's Super 8 Camera as a 'Dada-ist Performance Piece'. Unfortunately we didn't tell the bloke who's guitar it was, and when he found out we had to go into hiding for a couple of weeks as he recruited a bunch of local 'hard nuts' to 'sort us out'....” “Records with swearing in!” “It was like a story with no pre-ordained ending. I still get a electrical twinge when a band hits that first note or chord, what will happen next.” “bum flaps fashioned from an old kilt of my mum's, black bondage trousers with the baby reins I had worn as a toddler attached behind, hastily marker penned anarchy armbands.” “I remember buying a white catering jacket (on which I pinned a Crass badge with the 'broken gun' image in day-glo orange on white) that I fancied looked a bit like the tuxedo that Sid wore in the My Way video. Margate being a seaside resort, though, I was always being asked if I'd got a job as an ice cream seller.” “Its naïve to think that society could change, but to a certain extent, in the early years and with the optimism of youth I believed it could happen.” “I still had long hair and was wearing a 'Tales From Topographic Oceans' teeshirt. The guitarist of Slaughter came up to me after the gig and said “Do you like Yes then?”, I very nervously mumbled “Er I suppose so”, to which he replied “Me too mate, fuckin' great band!” “It came along just at the right time though and gave me somewhere to belong, which was a lifesaver.” “I'm still in awe of the sex, style and subversion that the original Punk Explosion thrust upon unsuspecting England and if I'm not out smashing the system then I'm doing my bit to resist it's clammy clutches.” “He said, "This album can't be any good. It's got 14 tracks on it." I love that quote.”

Every punk book seems to be about the bands, about the 'faces', about the music. Here are a few stories from the frontline, from the trenches. Stories from the foot soldiers who made punk what it was without turning it into a career. Think of it as correspondence from an unreported war. Just as generals are celebrated in wars, so only the opinions and memories of the 'stars' are sought for punk books. This book tries to widen that out to include the thoughts and reflections of normal, everyday punk rockers. Which is, of course, a faintly ridiculous way of putting it, as punk rock was truly an age in which every man and woman was a star, and 'normal' was about as far away as it could be. "On my first visit to Barbarellas I met a man in the women's toilets sitting in the sink, yelling that he was from planet Venus." "How did it feel at the time? Like I was the most obnoxious shit ever" "Thanks to punk, I managed to turn a teenage dream into a middle aged reality." "I felt like my brain had been restored to its factory settings; like starting all over again even at such a young age." "From that point on everything from exams, school, girls, teenage spots, parental disapproval, peer pressure, bullies, career, no longer mattered and from then onwards I could do anything I wanted - anything felt possible. " "The constant feeling of excitement over new bands, going to gigs, new records.....everything was fucking brilliant." "TEENAGE IS A FINE OLD TIME, AGONY, ECTASY, BOREDOM, EXCITEMENT, FIRE, ICE, RUSH, STATIS, STOP, ENERGY, LETHARGY, LAUGHTER, TEARS, LOVE, HATE, BOOTS, KNICKERS, FAGS AND BOOZE...and a little speed...." "I have nothing but good memories, even of the kickings and beatings we took, of those times....it was, just...all worth it." "I'd had a heart attack the week before and it was touch and go as to whether they would let me out of hospital that day. They did and we shot down to Yorkshire for the gig the next day..."

Rat Race is a semi-autobiographical novel set in the 1980s in Margaret Thatcher’s Britain. It focuses on Paul, who has just graduated and wants to be a writer. He faces overwhelming pressure from everyone around him, however, to ‘get on’ and join the Rat Race, against his will and in sharp contrast to the alternative lifestyle he wants to live. Pretty soon he finds himself on the scrapheap and having to compromise his beliefs in order to make something of himself. Rat Race is one year in his life, charting his fluctuating fortunes, set against a background of the music and fashion of the alternative scene at the time. It is also a love story, as he meets and falls in love with the girl of his dreams, and all the trials and tribulations that brings with it. Rat Race is an alternative view of growing up in the 1980s, the flipside, a savage indictment of the Thatcher regime, punctuated with some of the writer’s own poems written at the time, which provide a juxtaposition to the sometimes hard- hitting and brutal prose. Rat Race is a novel about many things, but most of all the pressures on the young to achieve at any cost in the get- rich-quick society in which they find themselves.

Two generations of American music lovers have grown up listening with Robert Christgau, attuned to his inimitable blend of judgment, acuity, passion, erudition, wit, and caveat emptor. His writings, collected here, constitute a virtual encyclopedia of popular music over the past fifty years. Whether honoring the originators of rock and roll, celebrating established artists, or spreading the word about newer ones, the book is pure enjoyment, a pleasure that takes its cues from the sounds it chronicles. A critical compendium of points of interest in American popular music and its far-flung diaspora, this book ranges from the 1950s singer-songwriter tradition through hip-hop, alternative, and beyond. With unfailing style and grace, Christgau negotiates the straits of great music and thorny politics, as in the cases of Public Enemy, blackface artist Emmett Miller, KRS-One, the Beastie Boys, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. He illuminates legends from pop music and the beginnings of rock and rollÑGeorge Gershwin, Nat King Cole, B. B. King, Chuck Berry, and Elvis PresleyÑand looks at the subtle transition to just plain ÒrockÓ in the music of Janis Joplin, the Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, and others. He praises the endless vitality of Al Green, George Clinton, and Neil Young. And from the Rolling Stones to Sonic Youth to Nirvana, from Bette Midler to Michael Jackson to DJ Shadow, he shows how money calls the tune in careers that arenÕt necessarily compromised by their intercourse with commerce. Rock and punk and hip-hop, pop and world beat: this is the music of the second half of the twentieth century, skillfully framed in the work of a writer whose reach, insight, and perfect pitch make him one of the major cultural critics of our time.

"Stealing all transmissions is a love story. Its the story of how The Clash fell in love with America, and how America loved them back. The romance began in full in 1977, when select rock journalists and deejays aided the bands quest to depose the rock of indolence that dominated American airwaves. This history situates The Clash amid the cultural skirmishes of the 1970s, and culminates with their September 1979 performance at the Palladium, in New York City. This concert was broadcast live on WNEW, and it concluded with Paul Simonon treating his Fender bass like a woodsmans ax. This performance produced one of the most exhilarating Clash bootleg recordings, and the photo of Simonons outburstwhich graced the cover of the London Calling LPwas recently deemed the greatest rocknroll photograph of all time. That night marked one of the last opportunities for American audiences to see The Clash as a punk band, vying between conviction and uncertainty, before they became a seriously brilliant rock group. Stealing represents a distinctive take on the history of punk, for no other book gives proper attention to the forces of free-form radio, long-form rock journalism, or Clash bootleg recordingsmany of which are now widely available on the web."--Publisher description.
