HEADLINE ARTICLE ON "THE MUSIC THEY CALL PUNK ROCK," P1, with reference to CBGB. "Punk (bite the word off at the "p") is essentially an attitude. It's the studied toughness, the calculated coolness of James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause, of leather-jacketed Marlon Brando in the Wild Ones, of Elvis Presley in his rockabilly days, of Janis Joplin and the early Bob Dylan and Mick Jagger." Also contains an article on J.R.R. Tolkien. 

Condition

Toning. One horizontal fold with marginal tears at crease throughout. Good.
