He didn't play on the album — that was Glenn Matlock — and he certainly couldn't play when he joined the band or during his attempt at a solo career. The public fascination has to do with his freak show element and the general public's perception of him as the poster boy for old school punk's most stereotypically scabrous side.
Wow, what a mess the pair of them were. Tragic figures tossed into the fame game. Sadly this kind of stuff never seems to shine the proper light on addiction.
