Featured Video: Punk (1976)

A fascinating five-minute clip about the landmark NYC magazine, Punk, which began publishing in 1975. The mag featured interviews conducted by writer Legs McNeil, who, according to the narrator of this British doc, was encouraged to ask his subjects “the dumbest questions because punk…is anti-intellectual.” I don’t know that McNeil really required much encouragement. I interviewed him once and he was (unsurprisingly) a huge asshole. Fuck you, Legs. (Thanks to The Documentarian.)
