Agreed, although they do perhaps deserve a couple more punk points
than you might think, because:
1) after leaving pub rockers Ducks Deluxe in early 1975 and before
forming The Motors, Nick Garvey formed a band called The Snakes with
(future Motors drummer) Ricky Slaughter and none other than Rob
Gotobed, later of Wire;
2) after The Motors split up, Slaughter (orig. Richard Werner) became
a member of Fallen Angels with his cousin, Knox of The Vibrators.
Small world, innit?
