The vast majority was/is shite really if we are honest? Will record it though, see what I may have been missing.

It was an enema that the music world needed at the time.

There was a lot of hangers on, but some of the music from that time turned out to be some of the most important records made.

Never Mind The Bollocks
The Clash
Inflammable Material
Rattus Norviticus

Even if you take the first records by the bands mentioned, there’s no way you can say the majority was shite. What came after the initial scene possibly

Love NMTB and Metal Box.

Re: The Clash. I'm a bigger fan of their reggae sound.

Also, Puckrick in her mid 50s is better than no Puckrick at all, no Puckrick at all, FM.

Punk was a shot in the arm the music industry needed at the time, the likes the Dammed, Pistols, The Jam and the The Clash. The music scene could do with a kick up the arse again...

A time before Ed Sheeren

And also spurned post-punk shortly after and all the cracking bands within that genre

I think public image left a better legacy than the sex pistols but the sex pistols were far more important.

The greatest hits is good

 

[Rotten Johnny]

Still better music than today's shite.

 

[redandwhiterob]

Given the shite that was knocking about at the time the opening riff of anarchy in the UK is one of the most important riffs in musical history imo

I just listened to the song Public Image, yesterday, for the first time in years.
I'd forgotten how good that song is from Lydon.
