How the punk music explosion rocked Reading
In the mid-1970s, when punk exploded onto the British music scene, the cultural ripples were felt in Reading.
Bands like the Sex Pistols and The Jam performed in town and it inspired locals to pick up instruments and get onto the stage themselves.
麻豆社 Radio Berkshire's Kirsten O'Brien speaks to Adrian Moulton - one of those Reading music lovers who formed a band because of the first wave of punk - about the book he has written on this period of music history.
