The First Mistake Of Art Is To

Rock Is For Everybody; It Should Be So Implicitly Anti-elitist That The Question Of Whether Somebody's Qualified To Perform It Should Never Even Arise.

That's One Reason Why It's Pretty Worthless, I Can't Totally Buy It, If You Think About It, It's Things Like The Phil Spector Records. On One Level They Were Rebellion, On Another Level They Were Keeping The Teenager In His Place.

A Young Woman Is Dead. I Don’t Care. You Probably Don’t Care. The Police Don’t Care. The Papers Don’t Care. The Punks For The Most Part Don’t Care. The Only People That Care Are (i Suppose) Her Parents And (i’m Almost Certain) The Boy Accused Of Murdering Her.

The Mekons Are The Most Revolutionary Group In The History Of Rock 'n' Roll.

Personally I Feel That Real Rock 'n' Roll May Be On The Way Out, Just Like Adolescence As A Relatively Innocent Transitional Period Is On The Way Out. What We Have Instead Is A Small Island Of New Free Music Surrounded By Some Good Reworkings Of Past Idioms And A Vast Sargasso Sea Of Absolute Garbage.
