«up?! Cheeky chappie John Lydon may be trying to ignore the past these days, but the past iustwon't let him be. Although the tenth anniversary celebrations oi the punk explosion earned nothing but his contempt, he was at the same time
Involved in a courtroom battle to stake
. his claim ior £880,000 worth oi
royalties dating irom his split with the Sex Pistols and their Machiavellian manager Malcolm McLaren. (He
l reportedly ran out oi the courtroom
! clutching the cheque and gloating ‘it’s
1, deiined the Pistois' nihilistic rage,and
{ mine! All minel'). Forthe last iew ? years, the man whose atonal wail
whose early work ior Public Image Limited brought the word avant-garde
I back into the rock vocabulary, has
l spent most oi his time in the States, guzzling beer and taking in the 24-hour
; television, Iobbing the occasional
! gobbet oi spite into the record market. The latest album (entitled Album) sees
. l himiashioningaiorm oi ‘thinking
5 man’s heavy metal' with hit producer j Bill Laswell, legendary Cream and Air
. ForcedrummerGlngerBaker,
Japanese keyboard player Ryuichi Sakamoto, the very best oi heavy rock guitarists (don't just take it irom me— listen to his Zappa and solo work) Steve Vai, and Shankar, the indian electric violinist whose recent credits include albums by Echo and the Bunnymen and Lou Reed. Lydon’s on top again, and it's a change oi tune irom his last British tour, when ideas were at such a rock-bottom low that he recruited a band that were more used to playing Holiday inns and got them to rehash Anarchy In The UK. Now with Album attracting rave reviews (tor a PiL album) we ask, Is he going to be the voice oi the 90s as well?
