About Me

Public Image LTD formed in 1978, after John Lydon departed from the Sex Pistols. This was new ground for Lydon, completley different from the Sex Pistols. It was more musical and more experimental. Lydon recruited Jim Walker (drums), keith Leven (guitar) and Jah Wobble (bass). Jah Wobble (John Wardle) was also a possibilty to replace Glen Matlock when he left the Sex Pistols in 1977, but Sid Vicious got there first. Their debute single, 'Public Image' was almost an attack at Lydons fans who wanted him to be like he was in the Sex Pistols. he was making sure people knew things were going to be different from that point forward.
