We sat down with LA punk legend Alice Bag to discuss the state of punk music and her 40-year career.

"Because of punk rock, I never think that a creative project or wish or dream of mine is something I can’t do."

Ruby Ray's new book, "Kalifornia Kool," reminds us what made the early scene so special.

Bag's memoir recounts her lifelong romance with rock 'n' roll music, and how her passion for music led to her to lead the Bags, one of first-generation L.A. punk's most riotous bands.

Pages from the fanzine Slash.

"As far as my punk days, I think they prepared me to be one smart ass biker bitch, I wouldn't change my past for anything." Interview with Connie Clarksville.

Some LA Punk Rock History circa 1970's: "Watching the Dickies! Nickey Beat (wearing a Bags t shirt), Dawn Wirth(?) Craig Lee, Brian Tristan aka Kid Congo Powers, Trudie Trudie, Hellin Killer, Bobby Pyn aka Darby Crash and yours truly. Leonard had broken his leg in my honor and I’m about to pull away his walker. Nice." by Alice Bag photo shot at the Masque, 1977

In the 1970s, punk artists embraced sexual taboos in a transgressive effort to liberate American culture.
