    @Barak Nelson Transfixed? ...... to this. It's a tape loop. There's nothing wrong with that. But - it's BAD. exCEPtionally, BAD. It stinks, it's REALly BAD. Like, "REAL"ly B A D. REALLY BAD. It sucks! If it was lucky enough to be reel to reel, you could display it but I would NEVer admit to knowing what it was AND to say THIS IS THE SEX PISTOLS??? Some joker did this - a "loser', (capitol L on forehead - and that joke is ALmost as lame as this loop is). Hey, I see the statue of liberty every day. When the SEX PISTOLS were in New York City, they blew the whole scene. Can you understand that? The SEX PISTOLS BLEW OUT NEW YORK CITY and their legacy remains. The fashion alone is still "THE" SCENE. I hate to be the one to tell you, but if it helps you any, job well done👍. Barak, get your head out of the shit bucket and listen to VAN MORRISON, TOM JONES and JEFF BECK, and their new albumS - plural. THE WHO just released a new record. OR, go back and listen to T REX. TRY, MOTORHEAD - THE ACE OF SPADES, is the tune. For your listening pleasure and education all can be brought up on KZread. Please, Lord, help this man with music. I mean, if you dropped acid, I could understand but if I dropped acid and heard this, I would RUN FOR MY LIFE! Get hip, boy. Listen to the flip side, side B?? JOHNNY ROTTEN AND PIL. 17:15 of being transfixed with your head in a bucket of shit. Did you wash behind your ears? OH NO OH NO OH NO OH NO IN your ears - did you wash IN your ears?? 17:51 minutes of pure shit AND aNOTHer wasted bitch slap 🤦‍♀️ LHM (Lord Have Mercy) No hard feelings, huh? Iz only the truth, boy. Only the truth.

    Lydon really has to be admired and praised, he had just finished with a hugely successful band Sex Pistols and instead of cashing in on the Pistols formula he goes in a completely opposite direction and creates infinitely more interesting music than the Pistols could ever hope to create.

    I think Sex Pistols was just a means to an end for John to start up a band that played the kind of music he really liked. If you have seen a lot of interviews of him through the years he is quite dismissive about the Pistols era. Remember John liked music like: Neu, Can, Alice Cooper, early Pink Floyd, Van Der Graaf, Peter Hammill, Captain Beefheart, Magma etc... In the Filthy Lucre documentary John said that Jones and Cook didn't want to ride in the same bus as John and Sid because they played reggae music all the time during their last tour in the US. lol

His abrasively metallic arpeggios hit the ear like aural shrapnel, and although it often sounds completely chaotic and improvised - every single note in every single phrase is predetermined 😎 To quote Jah Wobble - "The most interesting guitarist in Britain, Keith Levene"

    Have a quick look at who played on "Album" and then tell me about them losing all the "good players". PiL was a fluid band from the beginning. Jim Walker was only there for the 1st album, Wobble had left before the 3rd. Yes, it would have been nice if the classic line up had recorded more material together but had Wobble played on the Flowers of romance album, would it have been as good? It would surely have sounded VERY different but better? People get very fixed notions about their favourite bands/artists and take it personally when they record material that isn't too their "liking". How many times have fans (myself included) dismissed a record entirely, only for them in time to proclaim it a masterpiece. We often conveniently forget that it wasn't always to our liking but was actually very much an acquired taste. Cast aside all your preconceptions of what PiL should sound like and listen to "Album" as if by an unknown band and there's probably a good chance that you'll admit it's a perfectly legitimate addition to the PiL catalogue. Sorry for the rant btw!

    To each their own, but I think of "Album" as more of a Lydon-fronted Bill Laswell project than anything... the playing is all top-notch, of course, because the lineup of musicians is unbelievable, but in that respect it's almost the polar opposite of Metal Box-era PiL, which was more about cramming atonal, challenging musical expression into something like alien pop songs, and the sound is the direct result of Levene/Atkins/Wobble's relative musical inexpertise (more akin to Eno's "non-musician" approach to things early in his career).

I don't know if he meant it like that consciously (is "praise picnicking in the british countryside" a known phrase or allusion? I can't be arsed to google that now. I do know that, watching a newsclip on some historical documentary, I realized that he apes part of a speech by Ian Paisely on EMI by sex pistols, the 'ever ever ever' part) but the duality rgistered on some level I think.

    Yes, this is Johnny Rotten's band after he left Sex Pistols. I'm not in the camp that prefers Public Image Ltd. to the Pistols, but the band certainly created some great, original sounding music. On May 21, 1978, Lydon (he couldn't use Rotten then because Malcolm McLaren claimed he had the rights to it) announced in NME the members of the new band he was forming. On October 11, 1978 the band's first single Public Image/ The Cowboy Song was released and on December 8 of that year the Public Image album hit the stores with its iconic cover. Two singles followed in 1979, Death Disco/ No Birds Do Sing and Memories/ Another. Then on November 14, 1979 the famous Metal Box was released. A manufacturer of metal tins who was in financial straits was located and 50,000 12" film tins were purchased and embossed with the PIL logo. But the three 12" 45 singles were a tight fit and some had to be pried out of the tins by exasperated purchasers. The records were separated by thin paper layers and were not in sleeves. No lyric sheet was included due to cost overruns in the production of this unusual album package. All three of the Peel songs here were in the Metal Box. If you are not a big fan of Public Image Ltd, at least hear the first song Poptones. It cuts the album version IMO and stands as one of the band's finest achievements. As usual, the sound quality here is much better balanced than on other posts on youtube. Vibracobra23 always hunts down the best sounding versions he can find and you can tell. That's why he is the gold standard for Peel sessions.

    @@RVBOY2 Can't logically disagree with anything you said there, cuz. Cleverly worded, hats off to you. He may be a horrible singer, true, but I plus millions of others (who've actually heard him sing), love his voice. And part of the reason we love his voice is we love him. And then you add Keith Levene and Wobble to the mix and DANG! This is such a great track! Thanks for your comment, it reminded me to come back and listen! Just from the picture, it's simple to see they know very well how bloody great they sound, and they're right.

    Saw them at the Beacon and it was fascinating. Never understood why the Pistols never played New York. Johnny was careening about like a stalking panther. His macho strut was half real, half self-parody at the same time. Someone spit up at him from the front row and it hit him just above they eye. Without missing a BEAT, he flicked it away while striking a pose. Which was cool beyond words. But what really blew me away was that his drummer was . . . Wait for it . . . Ginger Baker! Ginger fucking Baker. Now that’s eclectic!

    @dan coleman Nooo, I don't think so. I would have remembered that. At the show I saw, a girl hopped upstage and started frugging away. Not too shy about it either. Johnny just stood beside her, gesturing with his hands, as if to say, "Look at this idiot." Too funny.

    LOL I remember when PIL got together ( I was just a teenager at the time), NME ran an article on them saying they made the Sex Pistols sound like a bunch of Nashville sessions musicians. I think that was quite unfair, this is more complex and freeform. Far more interesting than the brash but rocksteady grind of the Studio 'Pistols'.
