  Why did Adam Ant listen to Malcolm Maclaren? 'Dirk wears white sox' was a masterpiece...I liked Kings of the wild frontier, but after seeing them Zerox time and then on the Ants Invasion tour, it was a wee bit of a disappointment....leaving 3 really good band members with bow wow wow....

    Alex,

    How funny! Mine was Adam & The Ants "King of the Wild Frontier" too!

    But if you really want to X that out..It would be Black Flag's "Damaged." Then for buying a cassette tape would be the movie soundtrack to the punk rock doc."The Decline Of The Western Civilization."

      Sprung off from the earlier question, inspired by Antoni's post....

      What was your first credibly (or arguably credible) "Punk" record?

      My father was living in the UK as a foreign correspondent for FORBES 
      Magazine in the late 70's and befriended someone from CBS/Epic records, 
      who very nicely packaged up a box of promo LP's for myself and my 
      sister. In it was the first record by The Clash and PURE MANIA by the 
      Vibrators, both of which I initially listened to for only comedic 
      purposes ("heh heh, listen....they can barely play!"), until both 
      wormed their way into my subconscious.

      The first "Punk" album I bought with mine own money was KINGS OF THE 
      WILD FRONTIER by Adam & the Ants (if that counts). My older sister -- 
      who has since had an acute taste-ectomy and now li stens to absolute 
      garbage -- used to be cool and brought home the first few albums by 
      Blondie, the B-52s, the Vapors and the Police.  She now listens rather 
      exclusively to coffee bar crap like Dido. A shame, really.
