Synopsis
Hilly Kristal started his New York club with a conceit as a venue for Country, Bluegrass and Blues (CBGB). When Kristal had difficulty booking country bands in his club on the Bowery, he opened his doors to other kinds of rock music. Kristal had one demand of the acts he booked: they could only play original music. No top 40's, no covers. It was the credo he lived by—support the artist at whatever the cost. Hilly Kristal ironically became known as the godfather of punk, giving a chance to such bands as Blondie, Television, Ramones, Talking Heads, Dead Boys and The Police.
