Issue #11.


London: Mark Perry; March 1977. Single staple at upper left corner; 11 ¾” x 8 ¾. 14pp, printed primarily on versos only, with the first and last pages printed on the rectos as well. Black and white photos throughout. VERY GOOD.


This issue features interviews and articles on The Jam, the Buzzcocks, commentary on various New York bands, including the Heartbreakers, Cherry Vanilla and Wayne County. Also present are lyrics to White Riot by the Clash, with some black and white photos and short commentary. A Sex Pistols pin-up makes up the last leaf.


Sniffin' Glue, the first punk fanzine, was created by Mark Perry in July 1976 a few days after seeing The Ramones for the first time at the Roundhouse in London. He took the title from a Ramones song "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue” and the zine became an alternative voice to the mainstream music papers, covering the punk music scene at a time when little else was available. NME acclaimed "Sniffin' Glue" as "the nastiest, healthiest and funniest piece of press in the history of rock'n'roll habits" and it truly became the chronicle of the early days of British punk rock as well as pioneering the DIY punk ethic. It was called by some as the Bible of the punk movement.
