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. Great peel session .
@VincentRE793 жыл бұрын
Yes totally agree this is a superb John Peel session. It would have been very easy for Lydon to get the Sex Pistols back together and become something like the Rolling Stones, that was not for him.
@bent22 жыл бұрын
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

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).

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.

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!

Wobble on bass class as always. Live, out of tune who cares not like over produced crap music that exists today. The days of random live, rough live music is gone
