40 plus years on, the Sex Pistols output from their original creative period together, forged amidst times of poor leadership

and economic turmoil, continues to resonate in ways most could never have imagined. Not least those Stateside who

witnessed the performances that make up this release. A document of the last days of the band, left to run adrift by absent

management on a label that didn’t really understand, in a country that arguably felt more threatened than it did excited by

the prospect of the group, vital, primal and compelling are all words that can be used to describe the audio and here. Until

their return as a live entity in 1996, everything that followed their short, fateful tour of America in January 1978 was simply a

parody of what had been. With concerts finally released in full and correctly sequenced for the very first time - Live In the

USA 1978 takes us back to the moment the creative force that was Sex Pistols imploded.

On January 14th 1978 the Sex Pistols ended their fateful US tour at the Winterland Ballroom, San Francisco. The set list

included ‘God Save The Queen’, ‘Pretty Vacant’, ‘Holidays In The Sun’ and ‘Anarchy In The UK’. The raw production captures

the essence of a live experience, giving listeners a powerful snapshot of a significant moment in punk history. Available on

1LP Limited edition blue vinyl.
