Make The Music Go Bang! : The Early L.A. Punk Scene

Rating:
Summary: & it Did Go Bang!!!
Review: Very Good Overview of the Seminal late 70's Punk Scene & beyond. The LA scene seemed to Rise up on its own Without The Rock Press giving much notice or influence. That is a Good thing. New York was "Too Cool" London "Too Reactionary" But the LA scene since it was very much more of a Vacuum, was able to Grow up on its own terms & inevitably Crumble under Its own Terms too. The Book has many Voices telling the Tale, The Best way to tell almost Any Rock history. Loosely put together, which gives a Great Feel of the scene for those Stuck Elsewhere, because of Age, Location, or Natural Selection! Beer! Pills! Loud Guitars! Many New unseen Pictures. Great Cast of Characters. This Book sits Nicely next to "We've got the Neutron Bomb" & "Forming" as Great History Books of the Wonderful LA Punk scene. Poseurs Note: Black clothing is Nice, but Wild Colors Look Much better in the Southern California Sunshine, when you are Stoned(I imagine)!
