Everyone always overlooks, IMHO, the better Lydon/Laswell collaboration,
which was Time Zone's "World Destruction". Yes, a really simple, stoopid
anti-war pop song.. but that beat! And you gotz Afrika, too. Chinn &
Chapman couldn't have produced a Sweet song that punchy and glam sounding.
"Generic" is good, though. And "Flowers of Romance" is certainly a
classic -- if for anything, providing the best drum samples for
making harder electronic music. But (IMHO) P.i.L.'s best moment will
always be "Second Edition/Metal Box". The ultimate antidote for a bad
mood.
"First Issue" is a classic, too.. though there are tracks that can easily
be skipped over.
