Description
Rock and roll was never the same after the Sex Pistols. Inspired by The Ramones and propelled by Malcolm McLaren, the Pistols -- Johnny Rotten, Steve Jones, Paul Cook, Glen Matlock and his replacement Sid Vicious -- ignited the punk-rock revolution in Britain, and the influential reverberations were felt in all corners of the music world. Expressing the cynical, restive mood of the U.K.'s youth, the Pistols restored a sense of danger to rock music. With four exceptional singles and one classic album in just 24 explosive months, The SEX PISTOLS READER heads back in time and traces the band's unforgettable dalliance with the media during the years 1976-1978.
