This Ain't No Disco

Originally issued in 1988, This Ain't No Disco is the only warts-and-all history of CBGB: memories, stories and gossip from dozens of insiders who worked, played or just hung out at New York’s legendary birthplace of punk rock.

Located on the rundown Bowery, CBGB was the epicenter of a new musical movement in the 1970s, launching the careers of the Ramones, Blondie, Television, Talking Heads and many other bands. This new edition contains a new foreword by Chris Frantz of Talking Heads and eight pages of newly selected photos by Ebet Roberts.
