Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 67
From backrooms of Max's and CBGB's to the Tropicana Hotel in Los Angeles and back, Punk Avenue is a tour de force of stories from someone at the heart of the era. With brilliant, often hilarious prose, Phil Marcade relays first-hand tales about spending a Provincetown summer with photographer Nan Goldin and actor-writer Cookie Mueller, having the Ramones play their very first gig at his party, working with Blondie's Debbie Harry on French lyrics for her songs, enjoying Thanksgiving with Johnny Thunders' mother, and starting the beloved NYC punk-blues band The Senders.

The story about Sid Vicious and the vacuum cleaner was so great, I almost pissed myself. The book as a whole is definitely worth the listen!!!

Historia5 out of 5 stars 7
A small-town Florida teenager discovers punk rock through a loaned mix tape, and punk music and culture slowly takes over all aspects of his life. His new passion causes him to form a band, track down out-of-print records he loves and reissue them, open a record store, start a record distribution operation as a public service, mentor a host of young musicians, and befriend all manner of punk luminaries along the way. Slowly his life's pursuit pushes him to the point of personal ruination and, ultimately, redemption.

As a fellow punk rock vinyl addict, the title immediately caught my eye. I expected a book of relatable shenanigans in pursuit of rare wax treasure, and I was not disappointed. What I did not expect, was a relatable life tale as well. While I am more of a 90’s punk (The Virus, Oxymoron, Chocking Victim, NOFX), I was able to relate to the passion and appreciation of the art, the music, the “scene”, and that feeling of finally catching what I call White Whales (rare vinyl I’ve been hunting for). Well written and reeking of superb DIY ethic, I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys punk rock in general, especially record collectors. A great tale about a guy with a big heart who collects vinyl. Cheers!
