The single most influential thing that piqued my interest in playing in
bands, was seeing a group called 'the purple hearts' live in the mid
60's. They were the true archetypal punk band, and pre-dated MC-5 by a
number of years. Lobby was the guitarist. Another truly great aussie
guitarist was Billy Green, who disappeared in California somewhere.
Anyone know of his whereabouts [he may have switched to sax from what I
heard]?

yes, Dave B's site is truly a lifesaver, I feel honored to be helping
there.
