Well, I thought the Sex Pistols were the cream of the crop. They came in and topped everybody, for sure. They took all the existing strands and made a perfect package out of them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The Sex Pistols was a part of my life. Just a small part.
The English scene got more media attention with their emphasis on fashion, with the safety pins and all. There were some really good bands over there. The Sex Pistols were great.
I always think the Sex Pistols and the Ramones as very, very important because they stripped things down.
I never intended for the Sex Pistols to be immeasurably successful.
The signing of the Sex Pistols was a turning point for Virgin. It put the company on the map and, over the years, attracted bands such as Genesis, the Rolling Stones, Lenny Kravitz, and Janet Jackson. It also attracted Culture Club, who were ground-breaking.
The Pistols were like my work of art. They were my canvas.
I pretty much grew up when punk was big in the UK. The Sex Pistols were heroes for me. I used to run around like Johnny Rotten. I had a jacket like his.
I love the Sex Pistols. I'm a big Beach Boys fan and a huge Zeppelin and Queen fan.
I think there were early critics who wanted us to change the world because the Sex Pistols failed.
I saw the Sex Pistols, and they were terrible.
