The early downtown NY punk/rock scene in all it's glory. From a map of where everybody lives to hundereds of photographs of who was who at CBGB's, Max's and the like to profiles of The Ramones, Patti Smith, New York Dolls, Television, Richard Hell, The Runaways, Iggy, Blondie, Cherry Vanilla, Mink DeVille, Mapplethorpe, John Cale and english people (Pistols, Clash etc.) In many cases NY rocker was the first on the scene, when it was a much smaller affair. Texts and photography are phenomenal, and comprise one of the most complete records of underground rock and the downtown scene during the period.
