Caledonia Screaming: Scottish Punk 1976 – 1977 by Grant McPhee

PART OF THE All In ISSUE

‘Punk didn’t need Scotland, but Scotland needed punk.’

Grant McPhee writes in his new book, Caledonia Screaming: Scottish Punk: 1976 – 1977: ‘Punk didn’t need Scotland, but Scotland needed punk.’ The history that he uncovers in the book shows how these early days of punk were just what young Scotland needed to then build the independent music infrastructure that has seen our musicians thrive. But in the meantime, there was lots of gloriously messy music. Below you’ll find a little trip down musical memory lane . . .
