Episode 70: Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols

Never mind the Bollocks is the only studio album ever released by the Sex Pistols. Recorded from early to late 1977 in London, England with producer, Chris Thomas. Thomas’ additional fame includes mixing duties on Pink Floyd’s, Dark Side of The Moon and an instrumental role on The Beatles, White Album. I can remember being a thirteen-year old walking through Cambridge and Boston. Moving from Record store to Record store, I was obsessed with discovering new music. In those days, I was most attracted to album covers. The artwork played a crucial part in my decision-making process whether I would buy the album or not. Most thirteen-year old kids do not have a lot of money to their name. Therefore, I had to be careful with my choices. I picked this album out of a bin at a small, underground record store in Harvard Square, asked the store owner if it was any good (he just nodded) and that was all I needed.
