Mal-one
Punk Rock Clothes For Heroes/version
The punk movement also came fully clothed. This Mal-One single talks about the fashion side of punk that ran parallel to the music. These clothes were supplied from Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood's emporium situated at 430 King's Road, the epicentre of the punk movement itself. The clothes were not cheap and you needed deep pockets to buy them. But you also needed an attitude to wear them, as many factions were not so appreciative of them, especially the 'Teddy Boys.' You had to run the gauntlet of the King's Road on a Saturday from Sloane Square to the Worlds End. A tricky mile, in which you always had to keep your eyes open from enemy attack. The clothes were pieces of art and deserve their time in the spotlight and perhaps even in song. Hope you appreciate the gesture. Respect to that.
