The Week That Changed Punk Forever
Devo’s Early LA Days and Nights
Germs bassist Lorna Doom left us, January 16, 2019, (I was told due to cancer). MY PHOTOS OF LORNA were the MOST seen online. NO credit in 99.9% of posted images. Certainly no payment. To see larger images and purchase, go to Photostore.PunkPioneers.com.
I compiled some of my many Germs photos into small vids awhile ago. Everyone loved her. Lorna aka Terry aka Teresa Ryan was sweet, quiet, easy going, beautiful. Lorna was X’s “White Girl.” She was an essential participant in the very earliest days and nights of punk. I met and photographed her in early 1977. I last saw her was when that Germs film was released.
