But yeah, no Stooges = no Punk Rock.
 
For his part, Johnny Rotten cites Alice Cooper as a massive influence (and even wrote the `Coop's liner notes on his box set of a few years back).

Nah, not me (not that I'm an 'original' punk...)I always presumed the first 'punk' band, in terms of a musicalstyle/nihilistic attitude, was The Stooges. Don't really count the NY Dolls, but then never really rated them - to me if theyinfluenced anyone it was Kiss (which is another gulf betweenUS/UK perceptions). Why did the Sex Pistols cover 'No Fun'? The Stooges were 'punk' before the term/movement/whatever had been coined/invented.NLeigh Newton <angrytomhanks at yahoo.com > wrote:
