I've put this pick off for awhile, not because of any other reason, but that I totally forgot I said I was going to do it. So, finally here it is. Tony James is known for being the bassist for a few pretty well known bands and a couple lesser known bands influential though they may be. He was part of the beginning of London SS (future members of the Damned and the Clash) but didn't record anything. Then Generation X which ended up becoming Gen X and then Billy Idol solo. He wrote a song for Lords Of The New Church, but didn't appear on any recordings, then started Sigue Sigue Sputnik and played with them for awhile. Moved to Sisters Of Mercy (also check out this Sisters WTC) for an album, some singles and a tour and then through a couple of other bands until ending up with Mick Jones (ex Clash and Big Audio Dynamite) in Carbon/Silicon. They all have some good tracks and here they are.
