Legs McNeil / Gillian McCain

Musical Group or Musician

Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain are the co-authors of Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk, an extensively sourced oral history of the punk movement.

Please Kill Me (published 1996) compiles interviews and first-hand accounts documenting the origins and development of punk rock in the United States and the UK.

Reviewers call Please Kill Me an essential oral history of punk: a vivid, often painful mosaic of musicians' lives. The book is praised for its immediacy and passion, while leaving readers emotionally spent and nostalgic. Recommended for fans of Ramones, Velvet Underground, Iggy and the era.

For:Readers interested in punk history, oral histories, and rock biographies.

 In these five hundred and some pages, there’s more or less everything I’ve always meant by rock ’n’ roll.
