[kj] [KJ] On Fucking Topic.....

[Alexander Smith]

Not to drum it all up, but I have to say — in the wake of seeing “Oil City Confidential” (Julien Temple’s documentary about proto-punk pub rock legends Dr. Feelgood), I found myself questions some of my earlier beliefs — not least as Richard Hell (the inarguable precursor to the Sex Pistols) cops to being wowed by Wilko Johnson.

That said, the Stooges predate all that, so it remains the USA!

Glad we settled that.

By the way, “Oil City Confidential” is a MUST FUCKING SEE.

Cheers,
Alex in NYC
