Never mind the Bollocks” is one of the greatest rock records of all times, for those who know from music . A landmark in history of music

As the years go by, I find myself becoming more and more of a fan of Steve Jones. What an unheralded badass.

One of my favorite guitarists. No, he does not have the chops of a virtuoso but his style and sound is undeniable. His guitar tone on NMTB is so good.

"maybe if we'd done another album it would've sucked" LOL, I love that. What humor, honesty and perspective.

One of the greatest 1st albums of "All Time"!

They changed music. For the better, I believe. With one album and in only a year or two. Amazing. How many groups can say that? Or athletes, artists, etc. They were like lightning. Everyone knew about them, talked about them, that’s how I recall it. They were far more authentic and “real” than any of the other acts of the time. No refinement, just energy. It was like a group of high-schoolers went out and presented something magical.

Was, is, and forever will be the greatest rock album ever made.

Massive fan here. He's chilled out over the years and his biography was brilliant

The impact these guys had on the world with just one album is mindblowing, they have their place in rock and roll history for sure. NMTB is in the top ten best albums in the history of music.

Steve Jones. You are a major guitar player who influenced many of us to play the guitar. Thank you. You opened up a venue to a lot of great guitaring style.

Great honest interview, by a genuine and down to earth guy.

Listen to the rift he plays on Satellite, it s one of the best . I can never get it out of my head and have got to listen to it at the least once a week . My favourite band since I first heard them when I was 10 years old and still love them , even got Sid tattooed on my arm 💪 “Never Mind The Bollocks , Here’s The Sex Pistols “ 👏👏👏👏

One great LP that is a stunner of all time...really a collection of singles. The Swindle don't really count so not doing another was priceless and pristine if you will.

Pure raw,rock and roll,experience,with the sex pistols,"we don't care the music,we are into the chaos"...statement of whole generation.😂😂😂

I like this guy. He comes across as real genuine

He's so humble, such a great singer and guitarist, inspiring

You picked right on producer Steve. One of the liveliest sounding rock albums of all time!

Jonsey straight up dude..gotta love it..

He hit the nail on the head we was just having a laugh. And that's what life is all about. Especially for young men any way.

I was disappointed when this video ended at 9:45. I could have listened to Jonesy for another hour at least. Get him talking about his guitar playing!

This album changed the trajectory of music. Appreciate Steve’s music and his radio show. Pistol is an enjoyable show that encapsulates that small window of time perfectly. Well done.

I wasn't a punk at all - loved Zeppelin, Alice Cooper, Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, Max Webster, The Tubes, Stones, etc..but when I heard "Holiday in the Sun" for the 1st time on radio back in '77, I was astounded. I BOUGHT that LP. It's a great record. I don't know if I consider it the GREATEST album of all time, but it CERTAINLY is one of the great album releases of the 1970s and for sure one of the GREAT debut albums of all time..easily. It was game-changing .. definitely. Still today, it holds up well. Great releases do that. Really happy I was able to live through that period. The Pistols were special. For a very short time in the late 70s, the whole world were watching them. There's very few bands who can make that claim.

Steve is such a sweetheart. A real nice genuine man.

STEVE has always been the engine of the band the sound of his les paul is amazing , great musician !

Very rarely have working class musicians made it in music, Steve was self taught, a brilliant guitarist who added a gem of an album to the amazing history of Rock n Roll.

FANTASTIC interview. Thanks for posting.

Jonesy is an absolute legend.

I love Steve's voice.

I think he comes across so well; very measured, honest and entertaining. I was 10 in '76 and truly shocked by them. I was too young and not brave or rebellious enough for them. It was only about 20 years after that I listened agog at actually how good they were and was slightly ashamed that I had been such a little woos all those years (still am in fact). As an aside I find all these original Londoners be they the Small Faces eg Ronnie Wood etc, Charlie Watts, Pistols, my mate Terrence to have a common grit and extremely likeable. As a Scot the they make me proud to be British and have them in the team ... may that always be the case.

0:47 "I ain't a singer"... And yet their version of "Friggin' in the Riggin'" (with Jones singing) was the bands biggest selling single... You did pretty well, mate.

My favorite guitarist. Such a fan of The Sex Pistols

The riff he plays behind the chorus on God Save The Queen was astoundingly good. I've just listened to the song again - still brilliant!

Man.... it is so sad to see them age..... I remember when a kid showed up in our classroom with safety pin in his ear.... And he is right. They made one album. And it was all than was needed. Greatest Rock'n Roll swindle. Love "Bodies" and "EMI"

Wanted him to finish his thoughts about why Johnny made him feel uncomfortable

Steve's awesome. Love his guitar playing.

steve jones ....west london man ...like me ...big ups stud ...you did great luvs ya cocker

Punk always had something to say. You only have to listen to Jonny and Steve to realize there was a fierce intelligence behind the angry searing music...

One fantastic album is enough. "Her name was Pauline, she lived in a tree. Bodies, im not an animal.." Beat that.

A Brit legend and part of a band who changed the music scene forever and will always will

There’s an interview with Jones and Cook for Aussie TV from 1977, and the video quality is stunning, like it was filmed yesterday. Makes it harder to believe this is the same guy 40 odd years later, even though he looks in pretty good shape for his age.

A funny, honest and frank interview. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Steve and his classic Marshall half stack and Les Paul. What a sound !

I enjoy listening to him talk with his various guests on his radio show daily. I always tune in when I'm driving my car between noon and 2:00 pm. He seems nice, and he's funny. Keep going mate. Cheers.

Unconscious genius - really a remarkable man. And the band? Collective genius. With Elvis and the Beatles, the most important artists in music history.

Im a fan of Steve's.I love his candor

Love his honesty. Seems like a down-to-earth bloke. And I bet the Sex Pistols royalties are keeping all four of those lads in good financial shape.

That album captured the times so well. If anyone wants to know what the mid seventies in London was like, listen to that album and watch The Great Rock'n'roll Swindle.

Great interview. Always loved Steve for giving us Never Mind the Bollocks sound. Classic fucking album.

Steve was the pistols sound. Without him they would have struggled.

One of my favourite albums.

You can't find a more honest, straightforward musician than Steve Jones. He is passionate about what he does but isn't afraid to speak his mind about the good, the bad, and the fuckin' ugly sides of rock n' roll. He does it without any ire or attitude.

NMTB the greatest collection of rock music ever, its what being 17 is all about, I was 17 when it was released and its literally the sound track of my life !

I loved the heaviness of the Pistols.

Steve Jones may be the most underrated R&R guitarist in R&R history. He is incredible!!! He should be spoken of in the same breath as Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, etc.

Johnny is a total legend, he is The Sex Pistols. He was always and still is my hero.

1st time seen Steve Jones & Paul Cook play live was June 29TH 1979 "special guests" with Sham 69 ( ShamPistols) support the Valves at the Glasgow Apollo. My 1st gig ! Still got my ticket stub.

One of the greatest albums of ALL TIME. PERIOD!

The Sex Pistols, a cornucopia of sex and horror ,the changelings of 70’s pop(dreary) culture I Loved them ,and still do! What a f***ing Genius of Punk Rock music🎸🇬🇧🎶💋

If it wasn't for Steve Jones and the Pistols I would never have joined a band. Paul Cook and Never mind the bollocks gave me my start. Even later playing along to Tony Williams and Elvin Jones I would never have got that far without that start. I learned the single stroke roll from the opening bars of Holidays in the sun.

We were Cleveland pop music aficionados. We subscribed to "Melody Maker" and "NME." We saw "Anarchy in the U.K." at the top of the British charts with "Don't Cry for Me Argentina." We said, "What is that?" Then the record was released in the U.S. It was great.

Love his straight ahead storytelling

Jonsey is the man

I heard God Save the Queen the first time on my clock radio on top of my fridge in 1977. That was my sound system at the time. It blew my mind! How was I to know it was just the beginning of one of the very best periods of rock music for me? My first favorite song was Stagger Lee by Lloyd Price in 1958.

Great memories as a 14year old punk back in the day,meeting up with fellow punks to buy NMTB , going my home with them and blasting out the full album as we drank beer ,sang along, po going round the rooms..Oh Happydays 😊

just one of the greatest albums of all time. i could sleep with that

one of the greatest albums ever recorded way way ahead of its time pretty vacant my al time fav love the beginning pistols proper leg ends

It changed everything for me. I’ll never forget it.

One of the best sounding albums, and some of the best sounding guitars

I dont know if i am typical but back in the day i didnt get the Sex Pistols. I thought Johnny Rotten was a twat. A couple of years ago i started to listen to them and now i cant get enough of them. And i go out of my way to listen to John Lydon talk. I kind of feel i missed out. Life is weird. Great listening to Steve Jones. They are all pure genius.

Still a great album today.

“I’m a Virgo, I don’t know if you believe in stars..” Haha I love him.

He looks fantastic! Love his show.

This man is a real legend and a hell of a guitar player. The sound guitar sound in never mind the bollocks is perfect, and he plays all the tracks as a machine. His tone and playing on that album is just the stuff of legend. And he also play the bass on the record. Is a little sad when you think the stamp of bad players stays with this guys. Of course, punk appeared during the 70's as a normal reaction to Stadium and Prog rock, they were the ones saying punks couldn't play shit...and journalist also for sure, and in that perspective I can understand the idea of this guys not playing as good as prog rock. But at the end of the day if you take all the stereotypes away from your ears, and try to get a listen to that awesome album you'll realize that is played to perfection, and sounds great even 40 years later

LMAO, Steve Jones said singing for the band was a complete "disaster"...Love-It, mate! Cheers

What a fucking brilliant honest interview! Steve's awesome!

Great interview.

That couch is struggling, thanks for the book Steve, great stuff, regards

Never Mind the Bollocks is one of the best albums of all times.

Jonesy !!!! The Man :) :) (y) Steve...Thanx for All That Great Music and Memories Bruh :) (y)

Amazing MIX...Bollocks sounds great!!

God I love this man!!!!!!!

Guitar legend very underrated,Check out fire and gasoline,and Never mind the bollocks still stands out today,,,,nice one Steve,,,,

Really interesting guy - great sound. Neurotic Outsiders album with Steve rocks!

Tripped me out when I turned on the radio after not listening to the radio for many years to hear Steve’s voice on KLOS. Pretty cool that the station lets him go freeform and play whatever he wants. Never thought I’d hear the buzzcocks on mainstream radio.

Thing of it is, the Sex Pistols created a LOT of buzz with Anarchy and God Save as singles, but then the album came out and Holy Shit! It was one of the best albums, if not THE BEST album ever recorded, no doubt about it, and many people were acutely aware of that fact at the time. Steve understates it a bit, but that's why people are still talking about it 40 years later, it really is that good!

God Save the Queen / I did you know wrong was a classic single. People will still be listening to those tracks a hundred years from now IMHO.

A very fine guitar player. Would love to hear more from Steve.

Love Jonesey! Legend ❤️

I still think it was very chivalrous of Steve for defending the teenage Sioux, from that dirty old man, Grundy.

1 year playing and recorded one of the greatest albums of all time. What a guy lol

Great interview

I am also a Virgo, go Virgos haha. I love this guy, so down to earth and chilled and i absolutely love his radio show or podcast, every Sunday night i'll listen to it and look forward to it all week, he's a great guy and isn't as biased against certain types of music like John, but Johns a legend too.

I dont care about what a lot of people say of the NMTB supposed overproduction........ it just sounds finely produced to me

Anyone else watching this after seeing the Danny Boyle series?

What a band!

I can't believe that Steve Jones was starting to playing a year before never mind the bollocks , he played over dubes over his rhythm guitar 🎸 + he played bass on all the tracks apart from two

I used like Rottens approach to interviews... being an ex punk myself from the UK, but he grates on me now with his hypocrisy, Jones gets my respect as being as honest as he can be in an interview, even if it means defamation of character...well done Steve...not the greatest guitarist of the punk era but you did your best & good interview

He’s a legend, I love this fantasy guitarist.

Steve Jones and Tom Verlaine... 2 of the seldom mentioned great guitarists

His show on KLOS in Los Angeles is brilliant....best show on radio.
