For Misfits, Rebels, Malcontents and Punks!This here musical memoir now forms part 3 of The Unholy Trilogy of books I’ve written so far. In 2016 I felt compelled to write up about my days as The Tambourine Man, in the early character forming years of Primal Scream from 1984-87, before ’Screamadelica’ called.In 2019 that compulsion hit me right in the cerebellum once more, when I felt inspired by my on-going obsession with The Cramps, to retell the tales of my Cramped adventures over the decades, since when I first caught them at The Glasgow Apollo in 1979. Truly inspired!It’s now taken me to 2024 to find my writing mojo once more and this time to recall my punk rock tales from 1977-79, that defined my latter teenage years. That ultra crucial period of leaving school, hitting 16, getting your first job (and pay packet) and then discovering this whole new sub-culture of music, fashion, friends and gigs- that has left a deep scar on my psyche to this very day.Just like The Teds of the mid 1950s and the Mods from the early 60s, I was young enough in the late 1970s to capture my very own musical zeitgeist: at that most exciting period when you’re brazenly young, without a damn care in the world, on a voyage of personal discovery into the punk rock vortex and beyond... DO ANYTHING YOU WANNA DO!
