| Temporary heroes: Linda Lewis
for a few little things at the start of the 70s, Mr Lydon, singer with
PiL, for a few little things at the end. Both records are horrible and
stupid; Linda Lewis sounds like Larry the Lamb being Filleted. 'Class/style
(I've got it) (not so you'd notice, dear) is one long empty boast while
'Bad Life' is one long exhausting bleat. It can't be fun knowing that
the rest of your life is going to be one long morning after. There would
seem to be no reason whatsoever for either of these records bar the fact
that those responsible cannot face the prospect of starting a new career
at this late stage. The sound of treading water. |
