Sex Pistols

["James J. Lippard" <Lippard@HIS-PHOENIX-MULTICS.ARPA>]

In addition to the stuff mentioned by tektronix!hammer!dce there is an
album called "Gun Control" (I believe it is live) and a record called
"Some Products -- Carri On Sex Pistols" which is a collection of
interviews, radio ads, etc.  There's some quite amusing stuff on it.
There's also a cassette called "The Heydey" which is a collection of
interviews with the Pistols.

The Trouser Press record guide says Matlock "was sacked early on
allegedly for liking the Beatles".  The Book of Rock Lists also lists
him under "rock performers fired before their groups made it big" or
something similar.

The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle album is interesting because it contains
a few songs by the incarnation of the Sex Pistols with Ronald Biggs
singing instead of Johnny Rotten.  Biggs was one of the thieves of the
Great Train Robbery in England in 1963 who escaped from prison and fled
to Brazil, where he married a local woman to avoid extradition.  I don't
think much of the money (if any) has ever been recovered.
