Turning punk and disorderly
By Chris Charles
The Sex Pistols at the 100 Club
It is 30 years since punk first arrived, spitting and snarling its way on to the front pages of a disapproving press and changing the face of music forever.
On 30 March 1976, the Sex Pistols played the 100 Club in London's Oxford Street and over the next few days, BBC 6 Music is celebrating the anniversary with a series of programmes dedicated to the punk phenomenon.
Four of punk's original protagonists give their account of what it was like to be part of a movement that influenced everyone from Oasis to the Arctic Monkeys.
