The mashup of global, electronic, hip hop and rock motifs I found hugely intriguing. And they did it well live, too. But I did dig this 101ers stuff when it came to light in the wake of his Clash success. Guess we can thank him for abandoning his mates if that contributed to Mr. Dudanski showing up for the brilliance that is Metal Box. <br /><br />Fans of Metal Box would be encouraged to check out Kevin Ayers's album Whatevershebringswesing and its track "Song from the Bottom of a Well", which could be mistaken as a PiL outtake and presaged Metal Box by a full five years. Thanks for the 101ers post.Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09559950620807854485noreply@blogger.com
