I won't go into Ayn's snobbery (maybe he and Elph should get a room), but of course many of the punk musicians were quite skilled. I don't think anyone would argue with a straight face that the Clash or John Lydon were untalented for example. I was looking at punk from the narrow 1977 perspective. It doesn't take away the musical contributions all these bands made from the early punk bands to the California scenes later and beyond.
