Night Flight - Public Image Ltd Video Profile
- 23:21
This video is only available with Night Flight+.
synopsis
“In 1977, the Sex Pistol’s Johnny Rotten was the most famous man in Rock 'n' Roll…” Pat Prescott tells us, “then he went to work on Public Image Ltd… a group that called everything to question.” A cadre of PiL’s music videos and candid interview segments with Lydon are the backbone of this epic episode. Let John's disdain for music industry and all it’s hypocrisy, bureaucracy and bullshit be your guide to this episode of CLASSIC NIGHT FLIGHT. “You feel pressured into being outrageous… and that’s not good at all is it? It’s unhealthy.”
