Kick Out the Jams - MC5
Anything you fancy by Motörhead
What about punking some Psychobilly stuff like The Meteors?

MC5s and Motorhead are good suggestions, I do want to spread the net a little wider than just UK punk (that would be too limiting).

80's Matchbox B-Line Disaster - Celebrate Your Mother

Classic tune.

You have to stick a few Jam songs in methinks. I would go for Eton Rifles or In The City.
