Sex Pistols - The Original Pistols - Live Burton on Trent - 12" Vinyl LP Album

This ain't no polished studio trickery, mate. It's the Sex Pistols, spitting fire in Burton on Trent, 1976. Before the chaos, before the headlines, just four blokes and a whole lotta attitude. Strap in (if you dare) for a sonic assault. It's loud, it's messy, and it's bloody brilliant. This is punk rock history, straight from the source. God save the Queen... and your eardrums!
