This is the definitive autobiography of John Lydon, one of the most
recognizable icons in the annals of music history. As Johnny
Rotten, he was the lead singer of the Sex Pistols - the world's
most notorious band, who shot to fame in the mid-1970s with singles
such as 'Anarchy in the UK' and 'God Save the Queen'. Via his music
and invective he spearheaded a generation of young people across
the world who were clamouring for change - and found it in the
style and attitude of this most unlikely figurehead. With his next
band, Public Image Ltd (PiL) Lydon expressed an equally urgent
impulse in his make-up - the constant need to reinvent himself.
From their beginnings in 1978 he set the template for a band that
continues to challenge and thrive in the 2010s. He also found time
for making innovative new dance records with the likes of Afrika
Baambaata and Leftfield. Following the release of a solo record in
1997, John took a sabbatical from his music career into other
media, most memorably his own Rotten TV show for VH1 and as the
most outrageous contestant ever on I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out
of Here!He then fronted the Megabugsseries and one-off nature
documentaries and even turned his hand to a series of much loved TV
advertisements for Country Life butter. Lydon has remained a
compelling and dynamic figure - both as a musician, and, thanks to
his outspoken, controversial, yet always heartfelt and honest
statements, as a cultural commentator.The book is a fresh and
mature look back on a life full of incident from his beginnings as
a sickly child of immigrant Irish parents who grew up in post-war
London, to his present status as a vibrant, alternative national
hero.
