Spirit of 76 Retail Deluxe cover

John Ingham saw The Sex Pistols in April of 1976 and knew punk was the future. A founding writer for the British music paper Sounds, Ingham chronicled the emerging punk movement that ground shaking year and beyond, writing variously for The Observer, The Guardian, Rolling Stone, NME, CREEM, Mojo, Uncut, and a number of anthologies on the subject. Deluxe Edition includes book, slipcover, photo print, and 17 additional pages.

And so it was that Ingham claimed the first interview with the Pistols – the band that brought punk to London in the summer of 1976 - GQ
Containing the only colour photographs from British punk's first wave alongside Ingham's inimitable prose, this new book constitutes a rare from the trenches report on the UK punk explosion from one of its original participants -Creative Boom
