Lydon was at the time actually quite into prog (especially of the German variety), though McLaren wasn't. His later band PiL is quite far from UK punk - I'd encourage you to check out "Metal Box" if you ever have the urge.
Yeah, I know - and yet it doesn't seem THAT odd. Allen, you've paired yourself with a pretty diverse range of people.
Murray and Hicks doesn't seem at all odd to me... after all, Hicks worked with Pharoah, Simmons, McBee, lots of heavyweights.
Here is my top ten: Ni Kantu

1. Joshua Abrams – Natural Information (Eremite)

Funny; at about the time you posted this, I was reaching for the same record but ultimately pulled out New Ideas (on a NJ original) instead.
Now:
Harris Eisenstadt - Woodblock Prints - (No Business)
$175 seems like a good deal for this set. I have some but not all of this music. I also have to buy some Xmas presents, otherwise the pay pal would have already been sent.
Nice !
Yeah, those CDs are very hard to find and have excellent music. I have the Realm LPs but they definitely did a good job with the reissues.
Wouldn't mind a vinyl copy of the Tommy T on Time, either!
