Some very unusual UK cities for a band of even PiL's stature there - John'll be in Heston's house. Likely a byproduct of the uncertainty of the tour going ahead til the last moment.

I hear a folk/Led Zeppelin influence which makes is an interesting part of Lydon's legacy to pick back up, though it hasn't really hung together here. I used to drink round Penge in South London. Wonder what the locals would think.

Is the song about Penge, South London or the celtic meaning 'head of the wood'?

I do hear that Led Zeppelin influence though. A very badly played Kashmir.

Probably an intentional double meaning.

The value of diminishing expectations. It's neither here nor there to me, but in that better than the other songs they've recently released.

Lyrically it's rubbish and Johns vocals are strained. But musically I enjoyed it.

What a strange thing to realize, but Lydon is the weakest element in Public Image Ltd.
