Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Then there were folks like Patti Smith and Television who weren't really Punk or only occasinally Punk sound-wise
Maybe looking through today's narrow-vision punk glasses they weren't, but at the time? Definitely Punk!

As Verlaine himself said, "In the beginning of Punk every band was it's own strange little idea."
The idea that punk could be something homogenous or defined by The Ramones would've seemed ridiculous.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Someone once told me he considered Punk to consist of the Sex Pistols and other British bands involved in the UK punk scene in '76 and '77. And that was it.

They're stupid and wrong. Any definition of Punk that doesn't include The Ramones is worthless. Any definition that would exclude Richard Hell and the Voidoids is worthless.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That's pretty much exactly where I go when I think of punk.

Eh. I'm not trying to define the genre, that's just the punk with which I'm familiar. (Unlike New Wave, where I'm familiar with, and largely like, the American oeuvre, I just prefer the UK sound.)

Except, of course, Estonian bands in 2013.
