Cock Sparrer is THE first oi band way back in 1977!! Running Riot and Chip on My Shoulder are the first two oi songs. Then came The Cockney Rejects in 1979.

They are real OGs predating even Ramones, The Damned, UK Subs, Sex Pistols, The Clash. The first Oi band, Shock Troops is my favorite Album in my Kollection.

Cock Sparrer where formed in 1972 not 1975 after all they celebrated their 50th anniversary last year.
