I Wanna Go With Dignity


When punk started, The Only Ones were at the start and even had a hit with their debut album and Another Girl, Another Planet. The band was founded by Peter Perrett, who also fronted the band as guitarist and singer. 

After the Only Ones broke up, he was only heard from sporadically as a guest musician in other bands, which may have been due to the fact that he was focusing more on drug use. I only became aware of him again when he released his first and good solo album in 2017.

Now, at the age of 72, he has released his third album The Cleansing. With 20 songs, the work seems very ambitious, but even with the help of Johnny Marr, he manages to deliver work on some tracks that is based on classic rock tracks and hardly gets boring. It looks like he is following in the footsteps of Johnny Cash, who is still on top form even in his old age.
