Do You Remember Punk Rock?

If you were around in the 1970s, you might. Like most genres of music, punk has no definite beginning, but it can be said properly to have been launched on the world at the beginning of December 1976. The Sex Pistols were formed in 1975, but although they were signed by EMI in October 1976, it was the evening of December 1 that sealed their infamy when they appeared live on the Independent Television Today programme, a regional news round up for London.
