The back-to-basics movement, which embraced the roots of rock, was a rock reaction to expensively recorded and produced progressive rock and flashy glam rock. Although pub rock was short-lived, it was notable for the return of live rock to small intimate venues (pubs and clubs) in its early years. With pub rock's emphasis on small venues, simple, relatively cheap recordings and independent record companies, it was a catalyst for the development of the British punk rock scene. By 1975, the standard for mainstream rock albums was an expensive and lengthy studio recording process overseen by highly paid record producers, with the aim of producing highly polished final products with overdubs, double-tracking and studio effects. Some traditional bands spent months in the studio perfecting the recording process to achieve a meticulously crafted and perfect product. Pub rockers rejected this type of costly and complex recording process; instead, with pub rockers, the goal was simply to capture the "live" sound of the band in the studio.
