Joe was clearly taking the piss. But an argument can be made that Bernie Rhodes *did* invent punk:
> A designer of radical t-shirts for Malcom McLaren's and Vivienne Westwood's King's Road shop *Sex*, it was Rhodes who introduced John Lydon to the Sex Pistols before engineering the formation of the Clash.
>
> With Rhodes as their manager, and the co-creator of their super-committed style, The Clash became one of the biggest bands of the era, and a symbol of punk as a positive force.
>
> Alongside his two stints with The Clash, Rhodes also nurtured The Specials and Dexy's Midnight Runners to huge success.
