Johnny Rotten's Favorite Records

November 4, 2009

John Lydon shares the Soundtrack of His Life with the Guardian's Observer:

It's very hard for me to prepare for something like this because I collect non-stop, discover new things every day, and take music very seriously. I hate the technological rip-offs that pass for music formats these days, and go back to vinyl to hear a good record because the sound is always so much fuller. I don't even like listening to music in the car.

1. The Kinks - "You Really Got Me" (1964)
