Release Notes:
it would be an understatement to say that ônever mind the bollocks hereÆs the
sex pistolsö changed the course of pop music since the recordÆs release in 1977.
suffice it to say that if youÆve never heard the record played in its entirety
at good volume while driving across the desert or through the woods or over the
tundra -- donÆt worry about the exact terrain -- the point is, youÆre missing
out.
and now we must zoom through space and time to los angeles, 2006: 5,400 miles to
the southwest and 29 years later. artichoke had never recorded any covers
before, let alone a ôcover album.ö the prospect of screwing around with 12 songs
that already had excellent lyrics and well-known history was exciting. besides,
i enjoy a good stylistic tweak, such as devoÆs tweak of the stonesÆ
ôsatisfaction.ö why not try an entire record?
