I haven't heard this before; PIL venture into Zep osmosis to strangely interesting effect!
Another PiL post will be coming sometime soon - one with Jah Wobble in particular. I love Ease though, with its improbable lineup - John Lydon, Ginger Baker, Steve Vai, and Ryuichi Sakamoto.
"Zep osmosis" - I like it!
After Flowers of Romance, I lost interest in PIL. Personally, I hate this era of the group, but, hey, that's me. Metal Box is probably the greatest record they ever made...
Like BOPST I wasn't very much into PIL since Lydon was the only one left of the founding Members, though I couldn't help dancing heavily to "Not a Love Song" in our local discotheque whenever the DJ turned on the Record.
Therefore this is the first time I listened to that track. Cooky!
Now I understand why the regular German mid-eighties New Wave/Postrock-musicologist used to label the Music of the Post-CommercialZone-PIL as "Schweinestadionrock", a word which might be translated correctly as Boring Old Fart Dinosaur Stadium Rock.
But now, 20 years later - surprise, surprise - I am finding out that I kinda like it. And it would fit perfectly into a Lindstroem-Mix. One Baker, one Vai one S'kamoto, one Lydon, I'm lost in the Ozone again....
ano no. 2
I saw them -- at the Beacon. At the time, the closest thing a young Pistols fan could get to the real deal -- with Lydon kicking stagedivers off the stage during "Pretty Vacant" ("geroff the stayge, ASS HOLE!) and haranguing the security guards.
The Beastie Boys were supposed to open, circa "Fight For Your Right To Party."
When it was announced they would not show, everyone cheered.
