Rotten: No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs
Autor John Lydon Keith Zimmerman, Kent Zimmermanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2008
"I have no time for lies and fantasy, and neither should you. Enjoy or die."--John Lydon
Punk has been romanticized and embalmed in various media. It has been portrayed as an English class revolt and a reckless diversion that became a marketing dream. But there is no disputing its starting point. Every story of punk starts with its idols, the Sex Pistols, and its sneering hero was Johnny Rotten.
In "Rotten," Lydon looks back at himself, the Sex Pistols, and the "no future" disaffection of the time. Much more than just a music book, "Rotten "is an oral history of punk: angry, witty, honest, poignant, and crackling with energy.
