After years of searching, I finally got my hands on Stiv Bator's first solo album, which kicks ass. its a powerpop masterpiece; half the songs are covers of 60's garage, and half are songs that are as good if not better than what the electric prunes and the seeds were doing ten, fifteen years prior.
anyhow, some people think hes the american johnny rotten, others think hes the most original musical figure since dylan, yet others think the scope of his musical inpact surpasses both or at least is completely different.
