Too much flange-o on that, Steve. Great backing vocals though.

@xwsftassell well spotted Robin, screen on the green audio [had to slow down the tape] and Blues Loft gig [did you miss Adam Ant getting an earful?] + JT bits, and hey, presto it's a promo clip. GSTQ next.

back when they had a great bass player, before you know who... Glen Matlock is faultless when it comes to bass playing, Punk Legend,

[oxrjbizzle1984y]

@mrbassman25 yeah, glen matlock was the best musician in the sex pistols! i fucking love steve jones too, but matlock was more talented! he was the best songwriter they had!

[MegaGoodoldtimes]

They were much better before Sid joined. I mean seriously Johnny took a Drummer to be the new Bass player, WTF?

[CelticReject]

Yeah, one of the best live versions of AITUK currently in circulation this. The audio is Screen On The Green 29-08-76, the footage (or at least most of it) is upstairs in The Blues Loft in The Nags Head pub, High Wycombe, Bucks. Mostly culled from the first performance of 'Anarchy' but some from the second 'Anarchy' encore (where John and Steve have no jackets on). Also bits of it are actually from 'Substitute'. Filmed by Julien Temple (who couldn't remember where it was actually filmed!).
