The bollocks is one of the greatest original rock n roll albums ever. It will stand the test of time for the next 100 years.

I'm not belittling the role Malcom played pulling the Pistols together. I take issue with what he did with them after that. He intentionally booked them in tiny places that would hate them, he pitted them against each other to keep control of them, he orchestrated scraps and put them in positions to get attacked on the street, all in the name of his "vision." THAT was how he wanted to make these kids superstars. It worked, and it also tore the band apart.

John was a school drop out, but a life-long reader who was always writing. He got the Pistols job because he had a certain look and a certain attitude but no one could have predicted he would be an intelligent, talented lyricist as well. Or that he would take his frontman job as seriously as he did.

The Pistols had an accidental chemistry shouldn't have been wasted in bar scraps. McLauren was an idiot.

McClaren was like a mad scientist playing around with ingredients in his lab. But when the concoction he mixed exploded in his face and set the lab on fire he didnt have a clue how to cope with it. not sure that makes him a genius but he certainly played his part. a wonderfuly happy accident that we hadnt seen before and will never see again. all those that contributed deserve respect and their place in history.

''.....YOU DIRTY FUCKER...!  LOL CLASSIC.

When Matlock was kicked out that fuct it. Sid had the "look" but  was shite. Sad. But that one album was an absolute ball tearer and still is timeless.

That so it goes gig in 1976 is still one of the best gigs of all time.

Never Mind The Bollocks is a classic album and it is among the likes of the Beatles, Dylan, the Stones, The Who, The Kinks, The Doors, Love, Velvet Underground, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, The Jam, The Smiths, The Stone Roses amongst others.

Whenever I'm in the studio the main thing I always strive for is to get the drums and guitars as tight as possibe, and haters can say what they want about the pistols, but god damm it just listen to the anarchy recording!

Awesome - Sill good songs after 30 years

That bit bill was working is the Rejected version, you can buy it on iTunes.

He certainly was. One thing that Sid also showed is those who die young become legends.

They captured magic

Lookit Chris grin as he works on the Anarchy mix! He loves that music. :)

Alot of people don`t like John. Why is because he`s dead honest. People sugar coat things to keep from hurting anothers feelings, but not Johnny Rotten.
Had he not been the sex pistols lead singer, and written the lyrics he did, the sex pistols would have never been as big as they became. He tries to make out like he don`t care about the guys in the band, but he does. They are a magical team. I`ll never forget the first time I heard "Holiday in the sun" It kicked my ass and I loved it.

The reason he was sacked or left was because he didn't fit in with the rest of the group. But Sid coming in made things worse.

Makes me want to be a studio sound engineer... looks like a lot of fun.

The media destroyed them.

Johnny Rotten without music kicks ass! :O very cool

johnny rotten is the first man to be smart and love simplicity at the same time!!!!the kind of guy that can  really !say ,,fuck einstein'' whenever he wanted
