Pistols Get Screwed Again
The three most important punk bands were the Ramones, the Clash and the Sex Pistols. How the Pistols are denied while Jackson Browne, Bob Seger and Prince get the nod is beyond my comprehension. Sure, they are all excellent performers, but when someone says "Punk Rock" just about everyone's visual image is Johnny and Sid sneering and spitting back at them.

The Pistols were the ones who put punk on the map. "God Save the Queen" and "Anarchy in the U.K." are classics; "Never Mind the Bollocks" an all time Top Ten album. Denying them their due is just bloody stupid.
