Seventies may have been tough but I was a teenager and these were the best years for me. Music was more important than anything in my life. May be wrong but it doesn’t appear that music is as important to today’s youth as it was to mine.
Paul Cook, Rat Scabies, Terry Chimes, John Maher ... all the best foundations & absolutely brilliant drummers in their own unique way. God bless the DRUMMERS!!! *Thanks, Paul Cook. What a lovely bloke* . All the very best from Japan x - ( a 65 yr. old drummer who started because of hearing the likes of Anarchy in the UK, New Rose, White Riot, Boredom).
@@haraldtheyounger5504 No, I didn't mention them because they were *not* the drummers of the *original* punk bands formed in 1976. Otherwise I'd have included Martin Atkins, Big Paul Ferguson, Budgie, John Doyle, Hugo Burnham amongst a very, very long list of other damn fine drummers. OK. Cool.
@@popatyourecords Aye, but Dave Ruffy wasn't one of the '76 pioneers... Although, you're right, - He WAS one of the best drummers I've seen live.

Always enjoy listening to Paul . very articulate and well tuned in . His stories of the early days of the Pistols and other bands of the time are fascinating and I never tire of them . Great to hear other successful Musicians show there respect and admit there influences ,very humbling .great interview guys ..
My girlfriend at the time worked in a record shop and got us backstage passes for Big Audio Dynamite in Edinburgh .. Paul's band Chiefs Of Relief where the support band ... When we got backstage there was a queue of fans standing to meet Mick Jones ... I saw an empty spot on a near by sofa , So sat myself down and seconds later a guy to the left of me on the same sofa offered my a draw of a Joint ... That guy was Paul Cook ...
I was a late starter with the Pistols, a school friend turned up at my house one day with a pile of albums and asked me did I want to buy 3 of them for £2 and I picked never mind the bollocks & the greatest rock n roll swindle , I can't remember the 3rd lol but as soon as I listened to them I was hooked ! I was 14 years old at the time and just learning guitar , my mother went nuts when she heard the language in bodies so I had to listen with my headphones on lol .
I was never that big a fan of the pistols music as a kid in the United States, but I always find myself interested and listening to any/all interviews of the members of the Pistols.
@@Muirton66 Rotten was the main force behind the writing of the songs,especially God save the Queen.Without him Sex Pistols would just be another Ramones.The band got its narky reputation and controversy from Lydon.So your comment doesnt mean anything.
Great quote from Guy at 26 min or so…it’s not where you are from, it’s where you are going! LOVE this interview, makes me wish I grew up with these guys, in those very interesting times…Cheers from Damian in PHX
Great to hear from Paul Cook and to see and hear that he's in such good health and spirits - and still going strong. Thanks for uploading; (personalized) liked and subscribed.
8:20 Guy is RIGHT ....The media were claiming 'they can't play' , but when as a 14 yr old I heard Paul's drumming at the beginning of NO FUN ,,,& the tracks on the Album I remember thinking 'Omg this guy is Really TIGHT & & his beat is one of the jammiest GROOVES I've EVER heard. Seriously........ The Pistols TERRIFIED English establishment.... In 1977 at the Private School I was forced to attend kids were being expelled for having spikey hair or safety pins in their blazers. lol (Paul)
@@jeffsimon9594well, no he isn’t Billy Cobham , he’s not technically complex or a Godlike virtuoso but his simple and direct way of playing with its feel was PERFECT for the Pistols…In fact I believe Paul and Steve were the musical NUCLEUS of the Pistols…Both their contributions may not have been Buddy Rich or Ed Van Halen but on their instruments their sounds were very distinctive components of the Pistols live sound….In fact the Never Mind The Bollocks album was instrumentally recorded in the studio by STEVE and PAUL…Steve didn’t just play all the guitar parts but all the bass parts an octave lover which along with Paul’s crisp tight drumming was the Pistols sound that the public most remember and appreciate. In the studio after Glen had been edged out Sid didn’t play any bass on those recordings….And there certainly weren’t any WOMBLES involved. 🤔 With Chris Thomas in the studio they couldn’t hold their drink anyway. There was no pissed up Orinoco or Uncle Bulgaria with a Flying V like on TOTPs. lol. (Paul)
That's funny, living in Scotland I was having non penetrative sexual experiences with two female teachers and I never got in trouble. But spiky hair? Outrageous!
Seeing the lads fanboying Cookie is fantastic. I was 17 when i first heard Never Mind The Bollocks. It definitely changed my life. I'm loving these interviews.
I think what happened on the American tour was that the music rhythm section heart of the Pistols (Paul and Steve) got separated from the Frontman (John) by Malcolm McClaren.....The Winterland statement 'Ever get the feeling you've been cheated' ? John later said was not addressed to the audience but to the BAND onstage. Which might indicate that even then he knew that something was being engineered. Sid meanwhile went out of control in France & Paul & Steve went with McClaren to Rio to meet Mr. Biggs ...But by that time the Pistols as a working unit had lost all shape or cohesion. (Paul)
Yeah thats what he Just said 20 years later ....but....ever get the feeling you been cheated ....was firected st the audience..in that Moment.....John likes to
Was in the pub late one Saturday night with a mate a top jazz sax player from Berlin . Anarchy came on and he says to me who is this ? I said the Sex Pistols! Great drumming and great beat we both agreed on that . This interview is brilliant and thanks. I put up a bit of The Sex Pistols arriving at bush hall on my channel, you might get a laugh out of my cockney bohemian rhapsody too
I met paul outside a pub just by goldhawk rd station. Had a quick chat and shared my bag of chops with him. Was 2019 summer time. Called him a Legend and he said get out of it, Legend and laughed. He probably wont remember. As he lives a busy life
Paul Cook is a great drummer….he laid down a nice groove with the Sex Pistols. It was somewhere closer to Charlie Watts and Simon Kirke than “punk” drumming. It gave the Sex Pistols “NMTB” a great feel.
Yeah, Paul's right at the foundation of that great groove they got together. Nice tight, crisp pocket. Swings a bit, too. Simon Kirke's a great comparision. Al Jackson Jr.'s another. And Charlie and Ringo.
The start of no fun live is one of my favorite drum patterns love pauls right foot technique hell of a drummer..and we share the same birthday bass player and drummer both july 20th would love to jam with you paul..im in n17 if yer interested...Ave it.
Yep, there are thousands of people who reckon they were 'There'.....they could fill wembley Stadium,never mind a little cinema in Islington. (Ironically Mentioned by Prat later in this chat) I saw the Pistols and then Formed Spandau Ballet?????.....
I love Cookie, if you want an honest spit & sawdust account of the Pistols at that time he’s pretty much your man. A humble decent honest guy, who actually was pretty much the perfect drummer for the Pistols. I saw John back in May & loved it apart from his unnecessary trashing of his former band members! Steve & Paul proper old skool geezers! 👍😉
@@Muirton66 - Sadly he was a relatively bitter younger man, but never really improved this & cannot seem to let the past go & move on! He owes a lot to his former band members, so perhaps make a greater more balanced effort to recognise that! 👍
@@garyrigby21 to be honest, I don’t remember too much apart from it being very chaotic 🤣🤣 I lived in Blackpool, but Erics was a regular hang out for me where I saw lots of emerging bands 🤩🤩 those were the best days!
@@giorgiocurcetti4001 yeah we know!!!! Your missing the point. I was saying that's all everyone goes on about hence me saying they played Liverpool as well around the same time
Great to hear Paul stick up for Glen. John and Steve as much as I love them both have been pretty unkind over the years. The fact remains the Pistols only wrote 3 more songs after Glen left. Belsen, Bodies and Holidays in the sun.
I've read & heard about the Steve Jones stealing actual Rock Stars gear thing many times before but it still intrigues me. It must be the only time in history that ever happened. Also how did the gigs go ahead if half their gear was missing?
John Lydon has always had immense charisma and intelligence, and was streets ahead of most of the people knocking him. Some of the Pistols stuff is fantastic and so full of energy.
Entire episode of 'So it Goes'. The full package gives the Pistols a mythical presence. As a time capsule, it's absolutely perfect. ua-cam.com/video/fIxgpjb8JHU/v-deo.html
Thanks for doing this. It’s rare to to hear Paul talk about this stuff and he does it without any agenda or grudges. I’m glad to see the 3 original pistols having a chance to enjoy their legacy and music with less drama. I also love that it ruins the myth and does put them in the nice little package
Paul Cook is an underrated drummer he played to both what John Lyndon was singing and the cymbal crashes with Steve Jones playing anarchy in the UK was a perfect example
@@brendanbrendan9435 he is much taller than that 5 foot 9, ive met glen and john, ive got a big sex pistols collection as well seen them live 6 times,no you cannot help me today, 5 foot is a very small adult, im only 5 foot 7, and paul is taller than that im busy at work as well.

This has been amazing I love it and everything. Amazing
Great interview - roll on Pt2 👍🏻
Met him in leeds on his the proffesionals tour, propper gent!
Really enjoying this.
Thanks 🙏
More important than the Pistols’ music was how they inspired the upcoming young ones to “give it a go”
Wow, Paul is with you, magnificent! 😆💪🦊
I’ve heard Lydon talk about the origin of Sid’s name. He was named after Lydon’s hamster, the hamster was named after Syd Barrett.
Cooky !!!! one of the best drummers, nice one guy and Gal ❤❤❤
Nah, he was just 'right place right time'.
