Episode description as stored

Lenny Kaye is an icon of the punk rock scene. As a member of the Patti Smith Group, as well as in his work as a solo artist and rock critic, Kaye joins us today on Track Star* to listen to a few songs and break down some important Punk history. Beginning with a discussion of the songs and movements that influenced Kaye himself as a child, the conversation soon shifts to a broader discussion of what defined the punk scene and mindset, and how that developed over time. Kaye joins us today for an invaluable, first-person perspective on the New York punk movement of the late 70s, interrupted only occasionally by singing and dancing. This Episode's Track List: Gloria - The Cadillacs Never Let You Go - The Five Discs Johnny Too Bad - The Slickers Know Your Rights - The Clash The Golden Road (To Unlimited Devotion) - Grateful Dead Sonic Reducer - Dead Boys White Wedding - Billy Idol
