Lets talk about it
The Bigger Picture… just to reinforce the message, the Photos section of KYPP online now has even more on it, including (in the Punk Lives section) a report written by Penny Rimbaud on the first Stop the City demo. Embarassing to admit, but totally missed this when it came out. What I can add is […]
Penguin has tidied up the photo gallery and has also entered much more material on to the sub-albums. Photos, reviews, interviews, flyers etc. Have a look and remember to come back now and again, to check new sub-albums appearing or new images in existing sub-albums. Press here for shortcut to gallery. ALSO read all the […]
When I first visited Puppy Mansions (Westbere Road), I remember Brett and Tony reminiscing about when they used to squat in Covent Garden. Brett had a strange tale of a model pigeon he used to dangle out of the window on a piece of string and how passing tourists would try to grab a hold […]
Was it the best of times or was it the worst of times? Maybe it was a bit of both. No. Surely, it was just the worst of times. It was 1979, a year that never could have imagined itself eulogised by the Smashing Pumpkins fifteen years on. Punk maybe wasn’t so much dead as […]

A scan of the original of this is in the Photo Gallery section. It was written by Tony D. in March 1982. National tragedy 23 million people still employed! The Autonomy Centre in Wapping has now officially closed after being largely unused in its year long existence- apart from the gigs there every Sunday from […]
Doctor Death (not his real name) was about as bad an advertisement for five years worth of medical training as you could possibly imagine. It wasn’t so much the fact that he was a bad doctor . Whilst he was definitely crap in his chosen field, that was beside the point. It is just that […]
Here is a review of a ‘new’ cd by The Mob which has just been released by Overground Records. I would have reviewed the disc myself, but since I wrote the “excellent sleeve notes” – see below – would not be an objective review. If you buy this record, your life will be better… […]
