Punk Rock USA

on BBC Radio 2

Craig Leon presents a two-part look at the evolution of punk music in America, from its fresh mid-sixties garage-band adolescence, to its rather hip fruition in mid-seventies New York, to the more recent Nirvana-led rebirth.
This first part features
Richard Berry , Lenny Kaye , the Count Five and the Kingsmen, who recorded the seminal, if indecipherable, 1963 smash Louie Louie.
Producer Stewart Cruickshank
