The New York punk scene of the late 1970s is a well-documented one, with many writers and musicians associated with the scene offering their impressions and memories of a period that had a seismic effect on rock music. Phil Marcade’s memoir Punk Avenue: Inside the New York City Underground 1972-1982 comes with introductions from both Debbie Harry and Legs McNeil, and offers an interesting take on the music and personalities of the scene. Marcade was a participant in it, as the frontman of The Senders, and in various other roles within the scene; in his memoir, he writes about the evolution of the community and the city over the course of a decade, offering more than a few memorable stories and insightful remarks. I spoke with Marcade earlier this year, just after the book’s release event at Le Poisson Rouge.
