Аннотация

This book's unwieldy title is misleading. The volume offers a history of punk music, with the focus narrowed to the New York scene, especially as it revolved around the legendary music club CBGBs (short for Country, Blue Grass, and Blues). Heylin's loosely chronological study is organized around stories of the rise and often precipitous fall of bands as varied as the Velvet Underground (the godfathers of the punk movement), the Ramones, Blondie, Television, and Richard Hell & the Voidoids. Heylin too frequently interrupts the narrative with chunks of interview material. One also wishes for more perspective on the scene. There is plenty of valuable information here, but scholars and fans will have to do some serious digging. For large music collections.
