I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that I quoted you on the BBC Your Music Message Board, or amI getting ideas above my station

veritas	JK2006 wrote: Ah yes, Robbie - some of us were far more than 9 and we remember the Ramones and Blank Generation - Punk started at CBGBs in New York and was adopted and styled by Malcolm. spot on. Saying one went to CBGBs is like a badge of honour. Punk certainly was a very New York phenomena but picked up by British kids with their own wonderful variations, who sent it mainstream. That was of course though when New York was the most creative city on the planet-all gone now. McLaren was superb though as a 'huckster' who was able to ride the bandwagon and had some wonderfully creative moments. I'm glad you pointed out Seymour Stein.I have an amusing tale about him for another time. How mad to think Iggy Pop is the real godfather and still going strong. What's his secret ?
robbiex	Although Malcolm played a great part in musical history, he was also very interesting and entertaining. However he wasn't always loveable, The original Adam & the Ants paid £1000 for his advice, his advice was to get rid of Adam and take the Ants, who later formed Bow Wow Wow with a 14 year old Annabella lwin. MaClaren came up with the advice for Adam's pirate image with the Barundi drums, which became very successfull for Adam.
