"The Ramones were about as close to the opposite of a hippy college band as
you can get."

  They had long hair,skin-tight nut showing trousers and plimsolls.
To qualify as "Punk",The hair had to come off and the shoes had to be Doctor
Martins(Or if you were nt hard enough......Monkey boots:-),They were an
offshot of the hippy era.
      Glenn Matlock created the sound of Punk when he penned the first
album.
