Episode 131 Tony Rettman . Author of NYHC and other books

Growing up the kid brother of the City Gardens DJ is a sick way to walk into hardcore punk. His first show he wasn't out of grade school.Over time he would go from writing zines to writing freelance articles for multiple magazines. Eventually he would work with Revelation Records on Why be something you're not, focusing on the early Detroit scene. Later he would work on the collection of interviews for NYHC - 1980-1990 which would end up being released on Bazillion Points. His latest was Straight Edge - A Clear headed Hardcore Punk history also on Bazillion points.
This was a fun one with alot of insight in how the writing side works on articles, zines and books. There is alot more to his story that he tells better than I can type out.www.rettman.substack.com (go here to purchase signed copies of books)
