The boys are back in town, or more accurately, one of them is.
The boy in question is Duncan Reid, former bassist and vocalist with The Boys, an influential punk and power pop band that formed in London in 1976, just as the hitherto unheard sound of punk was flooding the streets of the British capital and beyond.
At The Boys' first outing at the Hope and Anchor, a well-known pub and live music venue in North London, in October 1976, the crowd featured some future members of punk royalty: Joe Strummer and Mick Jones of The Clash were there, as was Billy Idol.
