Today is John Lydon’s birthday. Being empowered with this knowledge, I immediately reached for my collection of PiL (Public Image Limited) records, Lydon’s post Pistols collective.

The themes were: F@%# Off 2016! - A song or musical moment that exorcises the ghosts from 2016. , Now that’s a bit random - Randomly select 3 albums (CD or vinyl only - no video) and bring them along, Who let the cows out - The track you select must contain a cow bell as an instrument.

I just couldn’t resist getting this widely acclaimed, newly remastered record on vinyl for the measly price of $15. The only downside, Paul Henry’s favourite song, the second song on this record, is “Baker Street”.

Picked this up for a bargain at the great TWH sale. (Incidently, where else in Nelson can you actually buy vinyl?

When TWH has one of it’s big vinyl sales, you betcha there’s some goodies to be found. Ranging in price from $9.

Possibly XTC’s most reviled album but for me it’s just full of wonderful moments. This is post Andy Partridge’s melt down and led to his refusal to ever tour again.

“Harmless enough!” you might think but by the third song you are fully infected/affected by their luxurious folky pop mantra. Possibly the most laid back bunch of Scots on the planet, they just continue to make wonderful records.

As a young person in their 18th year, I can still remember walking into my local record shop and hearing Bowie’s astonishing “Low”.

Fucking hell, what a mixed up old time this was! In the midst of a punk maelstorm, this proggy, hippy, trippy masterpeice comes out of nowhere and completely changes everything.

You find a better debut and I’ll eat Kettley’s pajamas. I’m with Richard on this one! A proper, bona fide rock classic.
