      He always spoke his mind. He had a Sam Spade quality "Tell those Dames to take it down a few decibels"😆 I could listen to him all day. I saw them live at CBGB's and a few other venues..He seemed like he was the leader,and he even calculated their entrance onto the stage. Funny, How he told Dee Dee to throw the mic on the floor if there were sound problems, NEVER show weakness. I miss these guys so much.

    Remember kids....this was back in the days when the masses would sneer at Paul Simon and Sting for playing with "ethnic" groups and exploiting their sound. That Daryl Hall and John Oates were sneered at for being "blue eyed soul" and multi-racial Ska bands from the UK people wondered "what were they gettin at" rather then listing to the music. This was a time when DeeDee tried rap and pissed off his best friends and bandmates ! So for a young John playing R&B and Blues would be out there idea.

    Okay, on one level you're quite right, punk is young, loud and stupid. However, it is also an intellectual, artistic multi-media (music, print, verse, etc.) movement on a far more fundamental level than the other genres you mention. You had the Voidoids AND the Exploited. Participants may not have been conscious of the more esoteric cultural references, but they were there nonetheless. It is fascinating on musical and sociological grounds alone, and historically epochal, to boot. And it rocks.

    This is normal for bands. Even the most punk bands around. Sex Pistols had almost everything decided for them by Malcolm McLaren. Many bands just don't want to admit it. A band is a collective unit. If you can't keep your band organized or together, it's not going to go anywhere. Try being spontaneous in a band and see how much your band members hate you afterwards. I'm all for the creativity of music but one of the most fundamental parts of being in any band is structure and planning.

    From its initial crucial synthesis onward (i.e. when the Ramones formed and thereafter) punk had room to accommodate both hard-Right and hard-Left views (and hard-everything else, for that matter). At its heart was the attitude, which was claimed by many political persuasions and owned by none. As to smart Punks, most prominent 'first wave' (74-76) bands had at least one clever-clogs (Rotten, Sensible, Harry/Stein, Hell/Quine, Shelley/Devoto, all of Wire etc). Except maybe the Heartbreakers.

    sure johnny would've known that. he also talks about his early favorites including little richard and chuck berry, and he was a big hendrix guy. but blues is a riff oriented genre, followed by blues rock that included instrumental prowess (guitar solos). soul or motown emphasizes groove and feeling. elvis and early british invasion were, as johnny says, playing catchy pop music, verse/chorus/verse, that doesn't emphasize those other elements... neither did the ramones.

    Implying I'm 'particularly pretentious' and 'not very bright' constitute insults in my book.I don't have any problem with your disagreement, but it would seem to be based more in emotion than fact. If punk was so thematically and costitutionally simple, why are we discussing it decades later? Incidentally, I made several lifelong friends in the late 1970s around the original punk movement. Like minds do that. Guess that's not gonna happen with you..
