SEVENTEEN

SATELLITE

FEELINGS( NO FEELINGS )

JUST ME ( I WANNA BE ME )

SUBMISSION

NOOKIE ( ANARCHY IN THE UK )

NO FUTURE ( GOD SAVE THE QUEEN )

PROBLEMS

LOTS OF FUN ( PRETTY VACANT )

LIAR

WHO WAS IT ( E.M.I )

NEW YORK ( LOOKING FOR A KISS )

BONUS TRACKS- CD RE-ISSUE

ANARCHY IN THE UK ( DENMARK STREET DEMO JULY 76 )

PRETTY VACANT """"""""

NO FUN ( UNEDITED VERSION OCT 76 )

I totally agree,this version is much better than the official release..Glen's playing is much more raw than Steve's on the official release....

I play this version much more than the Bollocks cd...

I got the original boot. Was thinking of seeing how much I get for it on eBay, speshly since my last Pistols boots (Belsen) went for £70 each.

'I wanna be me' was always the one I played the most. :grin:

I WANNA BE ME should have been included on NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS as should of DID YOU NO WRONG but what would you have left off I suppose..

Also got the original bootleg (two in fact - one with 'newspaper' sleeve and one with 'glitter' sleeve) - but bought the re-issue on CD (and got the limited vinyl re-issue as a Christmas present!!).

It really does piss all over 'NMTB'

Did You No Wrong is one of my favourite Pistols songs.

Just thought I'd share that nugget.

Listening to the bootleg it was a mistake removing Matlocks bass lines from the finished album, ok he was sacked/left but the bass lines on the finished product are flat and dull everything else sounds good but lacking that underproduced rawness which made THE DAMNED'S DAMNED DAMNED DAMNED such a delight.. Looking back I think Lydon quietly regrets letting matlock go even if he won't admit it.

It's difficult to imagine Lydon having regrets about anything?
How deep?
