Public Image Ltd : Memories
[Purchase]
In October of 1979, a new Public Image Ltd single, "Memories", entered the U.K. charts where it would stall at #60. We are exactly one month away from the release of Metal Box.
David Hepworth of Smash Hits reviewed the single in this way:
The irony about PIL is that they could get on a whole lot better without That Singer, although they might find themselves without a recording contract. The band are relaxed but atmospheric, inventive but firm, but Lydon's caterwauling is nothing more than lazy and very bad singing. The absence of echo this time out exposes him even further. The result gives experimental music a bad name.
