  John Lydon.Com | BIOGRAPHY
John, the eldest of three brothers (Jimmy, Martin and Bobby) was a shy quiet kid, who unfortunately at the age of seven contracted a serious bout of meningitis; which left him in and out of coma’s for almost a year.
Lydon would end up at Hackney and Stoke Newington College of Further Education, a college of sorts, well, if you count a college for ‘tearaway's and no hopers’ a college; but it was here he would fly through his O Level exams, before moving on Kingsway to start his A Levels...

 CMT.com : John Lydon : Biography
John Joseph Lydon was born in Finsbury Park, London, England, on January 31, 1956, into a poor, working-class family of Irish descent.
Lydon's audition consisted of tunelessly bellowing Alice Cooper's "Eighteen," but he did so with panache, and was hired as lead singer.
Lydon became increasingly dissatisfied and frustrated, essentially alone in his criticism of McLaren, and tensions between him and the rest of the group escalated.

  John Lydon | TIME Europe Magazine | 60 Years of Heroes
Always the outsider, Lydon was born to Irish parents in a north London slum, surviving spinal meningitis as a 7-year-old—which left his memory wiped—and then enduring a strict Catholic schooling.
Lydon became Rotten, the TV clash ensured notoriety and terrified town councils banned the Pistols from performing.
These days Lydon, perhaps inspired by his early encounter with Grundy, is a frequent TV presence, his gift for profanity undimmed by the passing years.

  Miles Davis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hancock and Joe Zawinul were brought in to assist Corea on electric keyboards, and the young guitarist John McLaughlin made the first of his many appearances with Miles at this time.
A devotee of boxing, Davis drew parallels between Johnson, whose career had been defined by the fruitless search for a Great White Hope to dethrone him, and Davis's own career, in which he felt the establishment had prevented him from receiving the acclaim and rewards that were due him.
Due to ongoing health problems, Davis' performances could still be fairly erratic, but concertgoers found a program with conventional song-based structure (as opposed to the nonstop thematic-based approach of concerts from the end of 1967 to 1975) and on good nights a trumpeter with a vastly expanded range, the result of hours of nonstop practice.

 Rip It Up & Start Again: PostPunk 1978-1984 by Simon Reynolds
Cue this delightfully knowledgeable survey of a period of Britishi pop that rivaled the 1960s for inventiveness (synth pop, white reggae and 'industrial music' were just three of its coinages) as well as producing some of its greatest characters, including John Lydon, Mark E Smith of The Fall and Bono." —Robert Sandall
Reynolds beautifully evokes post-punk's subculture - the importance of band badges, the patronage of DJs such as John Peel, the role of shops such as Rough Trade, which distributed fanzines scribbled in bedrooms (though not before it had policed them for ideological content), and the swarm of tiny, DIY labels...
Much of it is taken up by a detailed chronicle of the myriad bands and scenes of the late Seventies and early Eighties, the flow of ideas channelled along by traditional narrative and some magnificent research" —Kitty Empire
