Malcom was so caught up in the cleverness of his own business scheme he never really realized what a special thing he had on his hands. A band like the Pistols comes along once every twenty years, tops. We're not gonna have another.
I think everyone should be able to buy version available to be mixed in home of ANY album, like they do, so you could try everything yourself, have fun with mixer and be sure to hear ANY track.
Not accidental. Great Band. Intelligent Band. Introduced a new genre. 4 terrific chaps (even Glen) + Sid. N.M.T.B. is on par with The Velvet Underground's debut. When they came into my orbit in 1976 they changed my thinking. They're 1 or 2 years older than me. It's like playground hierarchy and they managed to piss off all the old school they and us were fed up with. Oh yeah, Johnny was the leader.
Malcolm was the so-called manager of the Dolls very very shortly in 1975, basically for one show (the Red Patent Leather Live show), and then the Dolls broke up.....
They came, they saw, they conquered, and they were done, just like that. Quite possibly, this is one of the top 10 rock albums of all time! Their influence lives on today.
Never Mind The Bollocks is definitely a classic and iconic album. I'm a huge fan of the Beatles, Dylan, Rolling Stones, The Who, The Kinks, The Doors, Love, Velvet Underground, Jimi Hendrix, Simon and Garfunkel, The Byrds, Them, Donovan, David Bowie, Traffic, The Smiths, The Stone Roses and i love what the Sex Pistols done with their 1 and only album (Great Rock-'n'-roll Swindle is not a genuine Pistols album) they made a genuine classic album.
Yeah in the Filth and the Fury there's a great bit where Cook says something like "Malcolm was so obsessed with his fucking media circus but he just didn't realise we were a great band". Which is very true.
I love the fact that the priest died the day after Jon was trying out for his school choir 🤣🤣🤣, But got love the way Malcolm is speaking in such an Elegant way when in fact he was trying to make the band a failure.
When I first heard them I just thought it was awful but something appealed to me that I started loving it this strange thing of being so awful it's totally great almost genius because that's truly art
Nah, he thought he was a part of the Dolls but you ask Johansson and he will laugh at the thought of Malc being anything more than the bands "haberdasher".
Well said mate. I was just going to write something very similar. As soon as I read Mmoo's post I thought exactly the same as you. It is obvious s/he is trying to sound intelligent but unfortunately for them real intelligent people are able to see right through them and see that s/he actually has nothing to say and has said nothing! Boring! Anyway, in as much as they were boys in a band then yes, they were a boy band but if anyone thinks they were created by Malc, they are talking bollocks!
Malcolm winged it and when something unexpected happened he claimed he had planned it all alone. Like the Great R'n'Roll Swindle. He tells us that his plan from the beginning was to create this group that everyone would want but no one could manage, so they would keep having to pay them off and get rid. It's just bollocks! He just used events to his advantage. He was an excellent propagandist.
yeh but every1 new that pete townshend wrote all the music! with the pistols although every1 ses dat glen wrote all the music were still in the dark on exactly hu it was coz dey all sed it was johnnys lyrics and steves music
yea, did you know he lived in L.A. during the 80's and grew his hair really long and rode his Harley around the Sunset Strip and played with the metal hairbands for a while... check out how he looked in Iggy Pop's 1988 "Cold Metal" video...
no m8 i wasnt saying that e wrote all the pistols songs. I'm sayin e wrote the whos music but nt mani people who just like the whos music n nt really like follow them would know. i was sayin also that its a bit of a mystery about the pistols coz noone really knows.
WHAT D FUK R U TALKIN ABOUT. JUST LISTEN TO THE SONG ON THIS ALBUM DEN LISTEN TO MCFLY OR HUEVER IS AROUND TODAY AND U'LL SEE THAT THEY AREN'T. hOW CAN YE SAY THAT THE BEST PUNK BAND OF ALL TIME ARE A POP BAND.

Greatest band ever. 1 album is all it took to start a new culture and way of thinking. That's impact by definition!
Greatest punk band of all time
I think everyone should be able to buy version available to be mixed in home of ANY album, like they do, so you could try everything yourself, have fun with mixer and be sure to hear ANY track.
Yeah but it means every clown would inundate youtube with a billion mixes of a song. Like ...uum in the days of Frankie Goes To Hollywood '84.

Superb: It is not easy for everyone to be at the apex of their fame and influence in their particular genre and era.
They came, they saw, they conquered, and they were done,
just like that. Quite possibly, this is one of the top 10
rock albums of all time! Their influence lives on today.

Great Band!

They made me join the choir then the next day the priest died 😂😂😂
I love the fact that the priest died the day after Jon was trying out for his school choir 🤣🤣🤣, But got love the way Malcolm is speaking in such an Elegant way when in fact he was trying to make the band a failure.
He got the Pretty Vacant riff from ABBA.
When I first heard them I just thought it was awful but something appealed to me that I started loving it this strange thing of being so awful it's totally great almost genius because that's truly art
So, ABBA helped the Pistols generate some momentum at the beginning?
this album originally was gunna be caled god save t he sex pistols
thank you for this!
Nah, he thought he was a part of the Dolls but you ask Johansson and he will laugh at the thought of Malc being anything more than the bands "haberdasher".
pretty vacant demo sounds better than the original..way ahead of time
he also was a horrible manager.so yeah really. i bet they wouldve lasted longer if they got rid of malcom

Malcolms digs at steve lol
Don't have a clue who that guy is. I will look him up. Thanks
Yeah, he did. He kept all the rights to their catalog too, eventually they had to buy it back from him twenty years later.
Steve looks same now, what he looked on the 70´s :D
