Yeah, they started out with R&B, but switched to rock after seeing a concert with The Who.

I'd call this early punk too, the musical style of punk anyway but not the social movement.

That was a great doc.  If you guys get a chance, check out The Stranglers.  Great proto punk band.  Kind of Doors-ish.

The Stranglers were (still are) one of my favorite bands.  Saw them way back in the '80s in my well spent, hedonistic youth.

I knew I liked you.   :aok

The Ruts were great too.  Gotta say though, the Cramps have always been a big favorite of mine.

The Cramps were awesome, another one of my favorite all time bands.  They would always put on a good show too, even when Lux Interior was too drunk to sing.  I have an old video of a concert they did back in 1978 at the Napa Valley Mental Institution, it's just fitting seeing The Cramps play to a bunch of whacked out crazy people.

It's silly but to me, Greg Ginn will always be the singer for Black Flag.

I'm just glad I never got the bars tattooed on me anywhere.  :rolleyes:

Jealous Again is one of my favorite records to this day.  Just sad that Greg is such an A-Hole and can't get along with anyone.
