Every Tuesday between 7:00 pm and 8:00 pm (European Time) I will offer old Punk records. My name is ‘punky_music’

Black Punks from New York City. This brilliant US punk 7” was only released in the UK. You might think BAD BRAINS were the first all-black punk band but this is not true. PURE HELL are most definitely the F-I-R-S-T all-black punk band from Marlboro country. They used to share a loft with NEW YORK DOLLS back in the early 70s. The same sold on eBay, in January 2012, for 60 Euro. You are bidding on the original first pressing, released on private mini-punk label ‘Golden Sphinx’ in 1978 (catalogue number GSX 002).  The A-sider ‘These Boots Are Made For Walking’ is a very well done punky version of Nancy Sinatra’s/Lee Hazlewood’s all-time classic, but it is the B-sider ‘No Rules’ (what a wonderful title for a punk song) that is the real cracker. To add to the appeal of this outstanding item is the ORIGINAL (not photocopy) article. This article is in tip-top condition and is taken from an old NME-magazine from the same year (1978). An absolute beauty this one and still in near mint conditon.
