This is a recommendation surprisingly I could get into. Amazingly, it was recorded in 1977 - although it sounds at least ten years younger. I remember him from those times - things like Big Muff getting played by John Peel, and JM's wild guitar sounds but I never bought in. I supposed it seemed too mellow and druggy, at a time dominated by starker statements - Public Image, The Fall, Talking Heads and Television. But anyway I'm glad to finally catch up on other developments. Now John's dead of course (1948-2009) -as is Peel - but there's a whole back catalogue awaiting me... :)
