Those Punks posing for photo's were actual Punks. They squatted all over the city and met up at the weekend on Kings road where we posed for the tourists for beer and gig money. Also quite a few of the pubs in Kings Road served us regularly.

I was a punk from 1984 until 1989 during the time that the punk scene was very small. Then I was surprised when the punk revival happened in 1994 after the success of bands like Green Day.

I spent some of my youth growing up in Kew too - awesome place! Main thing I notice from this vid? How boring Kings Road is today! As I mention in my youtube tour of the former punk clubs of London - that McDonalds used to be a legendary club called The Chelsea Drug Store - immortalised in the Stones' Can't Always get What You Want.....London now? Shit Sandwich....

Next to the chelsea potter was a market in a shop called 'The great gear market' and in the middle of the market was a coffee/tea bar and all the stalls were around the central cafe/bar...further down towards Sloane Sq end was a cowboy boot shop and that has also gone...Robot shoe shop was down near where saditionaries were opposite what used to be a petrol station which is now a food market...Robot sold very fashionable winkle picker doctor martin sole shoes which also took some designs from creepers that used to be worn by teddy boys..Teddy boys didn't like the fact that many punks wore the same clothes...There were many record shops which were before our price,HMV,Some had there own names..Virgin Records were not that big then and this was also before 'Tower records'.We used to hang out in the kings road and some shops were second hand clothes shops and second hand record shops...brian eno's record company was also down kings road because i took a demo there in the 80's...All of the old haunts of that era have gone..intrepid fox, the marquee,the clarendon,the venue, the rock garden...

70s were really tough times, lots of violence and London was pretty grimey! Punk was exciting and thrilling. In the early days of it was very DIY. People were so frightened of us!! I've only got a few pix from that time, not everyone had cameras then! Plus the old trusty photo booth pix!! Loved going to the Roxy, Vortex, Marquee and late night Speakeasy club. Despite hard times, low paid jobs and even worse, dreadful freezing cold bedsits the Music was fantastic and original!

Hard to believe its nostalgia now, lots of good shops still in the late 80s.Superb second hand charity shop where that carphone fucking warehouse is, manned by very interesting people instead of spotty KPi villains in cheap suits. .
