strange that a smack head who could not play bass is one of the most publicised figures of the genre,perpetuating the myth that punk rock was moronic.

Listen to Jah War by The Ruts ,Seggs is an exceptionally good bassist and much ignored by the media.

Sid Vicious did not play bass on Never Mind The Bollocks.

Obviously the definition of punkness varies but mines based on albums that as well as being completely snotty and incendiary and therefor musically perfect, they also, on release flew in the face of everything else around at the time and still do to some extent despite lotsa attempts to copy them......a few recent ones too!

No way just 10 was possible.

Edit: added some more to annoy someone.
