The Great Rock and Roll British Butter Swindle
Many thanks to the Cartoonist for alerting me to this bizarre commercial, currently running in the UK, which features that eternally-spotty, punk übermensch, John Lydon, pimping himself for Country Life Butter.
If this was 1977, I'd probably be crying "sellout!" and rioting outside the Whisky, or something. Nowadays, I just laugh and reach for the English muffins.
Mmm....butter....[drool]

also back then, punk rock groupie girls would have wanted john lydon to butter their muffin ~ probably now, not so much.
