CBGB Forever

About Me

“CBGB was the last legendary Rock and Roll club in New York City. Hilly Kristal started it in 1973 and even though the initials stood for Country, Bluegrass, and Blues it would be the birthplace of Punk. Richard Hell discovered it walking by one day and soon Television, The Patti Smith Group, Talking Heads, Blondie, The Dictators, The Dead Boys, and The Ramones would all call the club home. Hilly never changed his philosophy allowing new bands to play right up until the end. The club was located at 315 Bowery and Bleecker and was forced to close by an ungrateful and ignorant government bureaucracy Oct. 31, 2006. “

“CBGB Forever” is a fantastic tribute to the greatest rock club. Little Steven reached out to many of his friends to put together this brilliant collection. “CBGB Forever” features rare tracks from Green Day, U2 and The Foo Fighters, cuts from the bands who played there (including The Ramones, Talking Heads, Patti Smith, and Blondie), as well as contributions from the bands they spawned, like Rancid, Good Charlotte and Audioslave.
