Although I do like John Lydon, He is so ignorant sometimes to say “If we went in with some heavy metal noise merchant” it would have been a disaster is ridiculous, He knew absolutely nothing about music & production at the time! Tom Allom who produced Judas Priest’s British Steel album would have done a fantastic job with “Never Mind The Bollocks”

Ah, I see. I was confused when you asserted whether these ‘real life witnesses’ were right or wrong. I did know Sid (we hung around in the same crowd) and thought I had found an old friend. Sorry I misunderstood.

I’m quoting real life witnesses. Like I said, Kris Needs, Keith Levine, Paul Cook, John Lydon etc. People who knew Sid. I wanna defend the guy since he either gets “too fast to live
too young to die ” saint glory over himself or “talentless hack poser shit”. The truth, like so many things, can be found somewhere in the middle, but people seem to lean to the extremes.

theyakkoman: You speak as if you knew Sid. Did you?

He certainly was. One thing that Sid also showed is those who die young become legends.

Well, at least I know he tried hard. Both Keith Levine and Kris Needs remember a night were Sid would sit with his bass the whole night threw and play along to the Ramones album, in that way learning to play the bass.
I think Lydon summed Sid up the best. “Sid was a very good friend of mine and I miss him dearly, but he was a twat. He bought the whole “sex, drugs and rock n’ roll myth”.
He was a tragic character.

Sid couldn’t play much, Bodies and a bit of Anarchy in the UK but nothing other than that.
Watch them play in the Longhorn Ballroom, specifically during Bodies, Sid plugs his amp in, Steve promptly unplugs it.

Actually, Sid did a pretty good job. He learned to play the bass and did it quite well. Then he met Nancy and THEN it went down hill.
I’m not blaming Nancy, but she and Sid were a star-crossed couple.

The reason he was sacked or left was because he didn’t fit in with the rest of the group. But Sid coming in made things worse.

Anyway, thanks for posting this

Boy, Matlock does seem like a fairly bland individual, doesn’t he?
No wonder Lydon claims, in typically exaggerated fashion, to ‘hate’ him.
He did come up with one of the all-time great rock and roll riffs, though!

here, Malcom’s alright, I’ve seen some interviews when he’s so not got a clue i actually feel sorry for him. He said once “John is a nice boy trying to be bad”

Ha ha… classic stuff! I agree that John Lydon has got a unique churning vocal delivery.
