Punk didn't come out of Britain. Hasil Adkins was doing this wonderful stuff in the '50s. He sent tapes all the world, and punk was born two decades later. Hell he even sent a tape to Nixon who replied "Thank you for bringing these selections to my attention" I love to think of Nixon jamming out to Hasil.

@pentagramhands 50's 60's?!?! Pretty damn amazing.
Hasil Adkins is like one of them high powered cruise missiles well under the radar.
You don't know about or see him, but when you do...KEWHUPPPHHHYYYUPHHYY!
And you never forget it!

Musical perfection, clear rhythm, simple, minimalistic, rather primitive, the pure essence of rock n roll! Love it! Shame that people like Hasil didnt get more recognition. I often think I was born in the wrong time and wrong place
