In 1979, Public Image Ltd remixed and re-recorded parts of their debut album First Issue after Warner Bros. told them the sound was too non-commercial for America. That version ended up being shelved. Now, the John Lydon-led band is finally sharing it for Record Store Day (April 12).
The release is limited to 5,500 copies via Rhino. Find more information here. PiL's most recent album was 2023's End Of World, and their This Is Not The Last Tour in the UK and EU begins in May. See the dates below.
