Description
STEEL LEG v THE ELECTRIC DREAD Keith Levene Jah Wobble Don Letts Steel Leg 1978 Virgin 12-inch VS23912
Very cool 1978 PiL-related rarity in very good + condition for its age.
The sleeve shows some wear as you might expect for a 1978 12-inch. But the disc itself looks very good+... if not better.
Check out the pix and the details and see what you think.
Some info found online:
"The EP was recorded at Gooseberry Sound Studios (the same cheap reggae studio where PiL finished off their debut album after spending all the money) by Jah Wobble, “Stratetime Keith” (Keith Levene), Don Letts and Don’s pal Vince Bracken, called here “Steel Leg.” The hooded figure on the cover was long rumored to be John Lydon but he had no involvement with this record whatsoever according to the PiL fansite Fodderstompf. Nothing earth-shatteringly brilliant here—it’s damned good, though, I’ll go that far—but Steel Leg vs. The Electric Dread‘s four free-form, anarchic numbers most certainly point the way for what was to come next with the deliriously dumbfounding dub-heavy genius of 1979’s enigmatic Metal Box."
