L.A. punks answer was a comp album released shortly thereafter titled "Yes L.A." with the Germs, Bags, etc. on clear vynal with only one grooved side (mustv'e been on a tight budget) which proclaimed on the face of the disc "NOT produced by Brian Eno". I think this pretty well summed up L.A. punk attitude in the late 70's/early 80's.
