1. Ian North (singer, guitarist, synthesist, producer and songwriter) was the leader of Long Island's finest contribution to pop punk rock, Milk 'n' Cookies. Ian North was present at the birth of the New York punk scene - playing CBGB's shows with The Ramones and Talking Heads, among many others, with Milk N' Cookies in their cute baseball. The band's sole LP — recorded in 1975 but released two years later — is full of catchy melodies, twee lyrics and energetic fizz-pop guitar hooks. <a hr
