How times have changed this was big news in 1977, imagine if the same people could see how far standards have slipped over the years.
Did the Album come out a year or so later?
Maybe 1978?
Either way. Never Mind..... was about shock value primarily, it was one of the last batch of vinyl I ditched recently. The four singles stand out as the tracks that might still be listenable today. They were:
Anarchy in the UK - strangely prophetic in the sense that we stand a millimetre away from the trapdoor of self destruction.
God save the Queen - ditto above. Except that we meant it maaaaan.
Pretty Vacant - ditto above, to a "pogo".
Holiday in the Sun - ditto above, brexit permitting
The only other track I can even remember was called "Abortion" and featured the narrative "she was the no-one who killed her baby, ...., she was an animal, she was a f****** disgrace".
Bizarre testament to nihilism, in a certain sense.
