This Day In Rock: 8-16-74

I know, I know, I know - it's the 17th. But I meant to write this last night. Do I get points for being honest?

ON THIS DAY IN ROCK: In 1974, The Ramones played their first gig at New York City's infamous CBGB's club. What would come in the years that followed, would be anarchy in both the USA and most definitely in the UK, thanks to the breakthrough of punk rock 'n' roll.

The Ramones - "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue", "I Don't Wanna Go Down To The Basement", and "Judy Is A Punk"


Long live the kings.
