I just don't buy the "official Rolling Stone Magazine history of rock" when it comes to punk (and "grunge.")

And I think there are some big national differences here -- post below says punk made reggae big. Maybe in the UK, but in the USA I don't think the two had much to do with one another at all (Bob Marley was already big in the USA back in '73 or so -- which had more to do with the popularity of "funk" than "punk".)

Enough with the bad vibes on this thread though! "Prog Britania" is an interesting topic (what does it say that this type of music still causes such disagreement 30 years later? Isn't this really just the same old "Sex Pistols vs. Pink Floyd" argument from back then???)
