Currently my next door neighbour's band are going through their repertoire. The god-like Clem Cattani on drums. He played on these...
Clem also played with these legends... He was Jimmy Page's original choice to play for this little beat combo...
Every music forum needs an anti-hippy song. Great lyrics. "I think I'd rather be at home, Listening to the Ramones, Or hanging out and getting drunk, With a bunch of useless punks."
The Runaways do make me think of what Slade might have been like if Suzi Quatro had replace Noddy....
As a live act they were tremendous. I'm not as keen on them on record, although they're still very good.
Not a well known band. I remember seeing this on OTT (the supposedly adult Tiswas) and it's one of those songs that just hit me
And another one that may have passed others by a good young band - I saw them support the Strypes and they were excellent
