Nemone - 09/06/2009

Author John Savage joins Nemone to talk about his new book Raw Punk: The England's Dreaming Tape. Full of interviews, outtakes and extras- this is the essential companion to England's Dreaming, his seminal history of punk. Jon has gone back to the source to re-create, in original interview form, the extraordinarily disparate and contentious personalities who emerged in the mid-70s as the harbingers of what became known as punk. The book includes interviews with all the major figures of the time - including all four original Sex Pistols, Joe Strummer, Chrissie Hynde, Jordan, Siouxsie Sioux, Viv Albertine, Adam Ant, Lee Black Childers, Howard Devoto, Pete Shelley, Syl Sylvain, Debbie Wilson, Tony Wilson and Jah Wobble. The competition mentioned in this show is now closed.
