SEX PISTOLS 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: The Many Faces of The Sex Pistols offers a crash course in demos, deep cut and alternate versions from one of the greatest UK musical exports of all time. Across two individually coloured bits of vinyl, you'll find a bevvy of early demos recorded by their soundman (Dave Goodman), as well as live cuts and Sid Vicious solo tracks. Almost half of the included material comes from the aforementioned Dave Goodman's group The Ex Pistols (which was formed out of spite following Goodman being forced out in favour of more popular producers for the band's iconic Never Mind The Bollocks LP). Former friends, foes and collaborators appear side by side on a truly unique compilation, offering a deeper and more sprawling insight than most would dare to deliver. Complete with explanatory notes surrounding the recordings, this is a vital piece of fan memorabilia.

Review: The seminal and controversial debut - and ultimately, only - album by the notorious punk rock band Sex Pistols, originally released in that fateful discontented year, 1977. Never Mind The Bollocks... features 12 raw, loud and provocative punk rock numbers, with lyrics that challenged the establishment, the monarchy, the media and society at large at the time. 'Anarchy In The UK', 'God Save The Queen', 'Pretty Vacant' and 'Holidays In The Sun' all come as undeniable punk rallying cries, songs which should still be used as such today. Impeccably timed on its first release, it's no wonder this album touched a nerve, sparking the seismic cultural shift we feel right up to the present day.

Review: Sex Pistols were a band that excelled in the live area, especially in their reformed form, and live albums such as this are well-treasured. It features an extraordinary performance from the group and comes on multicoloured marble vinyl. This was when the band regrouped in 1996 the six-month Filthy Lucre Tour, the concert in question here being in Chile and was broadcast on the radio - it features the Sex Pistols at their fast and furious best with original bassist Glen Matlock back in place of the aethetically perfect but musically challenged Sid Vicious. Every single disc is utterly unique, with its own hand stamped pattern, making this a real collector's piece.
