THE TRIALS THAT FORMED THE MAN NICKNAMED “ROTTEN!”

Amy Haben·
JOHNNY ROTTEN - By Amy Haben - The incredulous John Lydon has really done something tons of people are too scared to try their whole lives-- face their fears. He jumped onstage as a young man knowing he may fail. He wasn't a trained musician, just a lower class thug with a penchant for enlisting shock and horror on the conservatives and shaking up the ABBA loving population.

VINTAGE DOCUMENTARY ON THE CBGB’S SCENE!

Amy Haben·
"CBGB in 70's" on You Tube - Live shots of Blondie, The Dead Boys, and The Ramones are featured in this late 70's CBGB's documentary. Even though the commentator has a strange, infomercial voice and the speed is slightly off, the rare footage is intriguing enough to keep watching. The very articulate Ramones manager, Danny Fields describes them as "a great machine that went on time." -Amy Haben
