(scott) this is the third time it has happened that legdendary contributors Jon S and John N have made the same contributions within a few minutes/hours......it's happened again, and since he's been MIA for a while (like he owes us ANYTHING with all the incredible posts he's sent), I'm gonna focus a bait on Jon S, BUT I'm gonna use both links for this re-issued classic.....I have posted this before in original format, I think Andie James sent it once.
PiL'S "Metal Box" is perhaps THE great post-punk release of the end-of-the-era classics. the dynmaic sound on the original vinyl was indescribeably amazing. OK, it's being released (with a TON of bonus stuff) again this fall, ("Album" will also be released later on).....grab this classic, I'm going to experiment with two links as they are not both zip's, so just to see what happens.....
BTW Jon S is is fine, got burned out on submitting shit. If ever there was a sentiment with which I could sympathize, that is it.......best wishes to both John N and Jon S in 2017!
