No
Mexico 70 were a pop/indie band in the late eighties fronted by Mick Bund (formerly of Felt) ;-)
Lydon has produced some blistering lyrics, and is one of the great interpreters
Bit like when the rest of REM teamed up with Warren Zevon for the Hindu Love Gods project - as great as Zevon was, the dynamic without Michael Stipe was diluted - and I also believe that Lydon can provide a sililar level of dynamic on a good day
I hasten to add though - that even he - and John McGeoch (RIP) couldn't save PIL's "9" album.....
