I think he's referring to someone named Oglive, who might have been the manager as well. Remember, even
the Pistols and Clash were pretty tightly run by managers who had lots of input into lyrics, image, dress, etc. Not
like the US punk bands like the Fuckin' Ramones, who seemed much more independent and grassroots.

"And yes I know about all the lyrics being written by an ex-Daily Express journo"

Really? I didn't know that - please elaborate.

I was looking for something else in a box of, er 'nostalgic' items over the
weekend and rediscovered some signed postcards of Jake Burns, Ali McMordie and
the rest, which I got after I wrote off to the SLF fan club around the time Inflammable
Material came out, when I was 12 or 13 I guess. There was also an Inflammable Material sticker which I'd obviously
decided was so precious I never stuck it on anything (it's not sticky anymore.)

In terms of what it meant at the time, how much I played it to death and how it got me into so much more music,
I think that album is my all time favourite record. I played some a while back and it
still rocks. (And yes I know about all the lyrics being written by an ex-Daily Express journo
or whatever he was, and I still don't give a toss!)
