If you weren't around then, I can only assure you how cool it was between '76 and '78. There was a musical revolution happening, and 99% of the people had no idea at the time. Another example of the Underground trumping the suits. And it kept changing and growing. Every three months some new set of groups and sounds would emerge. Some would get signed to major labels, most wouldn't. And none would get played on the radio, (unless you had a cool college station like WGTB). It was like San Francisco in 1966-67, or Greenwich Village in 1963; or London in, well, anytime.
