19. "I think people miss the context of time..." In response to In response to 18
I know a lot of punk-purists who shit on Television andcall them prog-rock because they had long well-played solos and a relatively mellow style but if you put it in the context of the 70's and how rock sounded then, it makes total sense to call it punk I think-same with Blondie, Devo and even B-52's. Patti Smith however doesn't work as punk to me at all, that will always be the mystery to me...
