The art of Damien Hirst and the music of the Prodigy, the attitude of Liam Gallagher and the hair of Eminem - all owe a great debt to the cultural movement that burrowed through Andy Warhol's Factory and the early 1970s' New York underground, emerging triumphant, kicking and screaming at the top of the British popular music charts, some five years later. Affectionately known as 'punk', it was the spotty, scruffy, bastard offspring of many a grander musical form, but like many a prodigal, went on to become more successful than its forebears, leaving a legacy that is still recognised today. This book gives voice to the punk generation 25 years on, as it remembers the mad, frenzied and often incoherent world of 1975-9. With nearly 100 contributors, including specially commissioned interviews with members and managers of the Sex Pistols, the Clash, the Ramones, the Heartbreakers, Siouxsie and the Banshees and many others, everybody has had a chance to speak, and their memories are supported by hundreds of previously unpublished photographs. Variously described as middle class, working class, political, social, sexual, aristic, superficial, perverted, puerile and heroic, punk has always inspired contoversy. Now it is for the reader to decide the truth - or truths - that fuelled this unique movement.

Seller's Description:
Very good. Vor 30 Jahren, im November 1975, hatten die Sex Pistols ihren ersten Auftritt im Saint Martin's Art College in London – und Punk wurde offiziell geboren. 30 Jahren später ist Punk tot – und lebendiger denn je. Die Mode, die Musik und die Protestkultur nähren sich heute von einer Bewegung, die zwischen 1975 und 1979 ihren Zenith erreichte. Zum ersten Mal werden mit dem opulenten Bildband PUNK diese Jahre würdig und gebührend porträtiert. Alle Protagonisten dieser unglaublichen, wilden, unberechenbaren Zeit kommen zu Wort: Sex Pistols, Clash, Ramones, Siouxie and the Banshees, aber auch Vivienne Westwood, Andy Warhol und viele mehr – und zahlreiche, zum Teil noch nie veröffentlichte Bilder machen aus PUNK ein Must-have für alle Nostalgiker, die jene verrückten Jahre erlebt haben und für alle, die sie jetzt erst entdecken aber schon nicht mehr davon lassen können. Es lebe der Punk! Autoren: Stephen Colegraves lebenslange Punk-Obsession begann 1976. Während seines Studiums an der London University spielte er in diversen Punk-Gruppen, wurde süchtig nach Bondage-Kleidung und verkaufte 18.000 Bakelit-Telefone. Mit einer eigenen Produktionsfirma wurde er Filmproduzent und schließlich Marketing Director für Europa der Werbeagentur Saatchi undSaatchi. Chris Sullivan veranstaltete während seines Studiums an der St. Martins School of Art in London eine der ersten Warehouse-Partys und wurde Manager diverser Londoner Clubs. Später stellte der Frontmann von Blue Rondo à la Turk seine Gemälde aus, führte Regie bei Pop-Promos und Modeshows, kreierte Kleider für Popstars und wurde Moderedakteur bei GQ. Seit 1999 ist er als frei schaffender Autor tätig. Seine Beiträge erschienen u.a. in The Face, Loaded, The Independent und The Times Punk [Gebundene Ausgabe] Steven Colegrave (Autor), Chris Sullivan (Autor) Sex Pistols Saint Martin's Art College London Protestkultur Clash Ramones Siouxie the Banshees Vivienne Westwood Andy Warhol Nostalgiker Punk-Obsession Punk-Gruppen Bondage-Kleidung Bakelit-Telefone Filmproduzent Marketing Director Werbeagentur Saatchi und Saatchi St. Martins School of Art London Warehouse-Partys Londoner Clubs Frontmann Blue Rondo à la Turk Gemälde aus Pop-Promos Modeshows Kleider für Popstars Moderedakteur GQ The Face Loaded The Independent The Times 3-89910-255-X / 389910255X ISBN-13 978-3-89910-255-0 / 9783899102550 Musik Musikgeschichte Rockmusik Bildband Popmusik Punker Sex Pistols Saint Martin's Art College London Protestkultur Clash Ramones Siouxie the Banshees Vivienne Westwood Andy Warhol Nostalgiker Punk-Obsession Punk-Gruppen Bondage-Kleidung.
