1	Never Mind the Bollocks Here's the Sex Pistols (1977) more music like this by The Sex Pistols While mostly accurate, dismissing Never Mind the Bollocks as merely a series of loud, ragged midtempo rockers with a harsh, grating vocalist and not much melody would be a terrible error. Already anthemic songs are rendered positively transcendent by Johnny Rotten's rabid, foaming delivery. His bitterly sarcastic attacks on pretentious affectation ... see all copies from $2.39! new only from $5.65!
2	Flogging a Dead Horse (1980) more music like this by The Sex Pistols Flogging a Dead Horse collects the A- and B-sides of the Sex Pistols' seven British singles. It's not really the best way to hear those singles, though -- there was a sharp decline in the quality and relevance of the Pistols' material when Johnny Rotten left the band, and some of the later goofiness dilutes the impact of early songs like "God Save ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $16.31!
3	The Hit List (1990) more music like this by Joan Jett From Sly Stone's "Everyday People" to Tommy James & the Shondells' "Crimson & Clover," cover songs have long been one of Joan Jett's strong points. Covers can be a waste of time in the hands of some rockers; but they've always worked well for Jett, who's been wise enough to make sure that her own personality never became obscured when recording ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $5.38!
4	MTV's 120 Minutes Live (1998) more music like this by Various Artists The live performances on MTV's alternative video showcase 120 Minutes have always been a little frustrating, since the quality of the music was widely uneven and the performances tended to interrupt the flow of the show. On that basis, it would seem that the appearence of MTV's 120 Minutes Live is something of a mixed blessing, but that's not the ... see all copies from $1.99!
5	Spunk: The Official Bootleg (2006) more music like this by The Sex Pistols Original Spunk Bootleg is yet another edition of the infamous tapes of the Sex Pistols' scrapped first album, this time around being offered by Castle Music UK and titled Spunk: The Official Bootleg. These 15 tracks were cut before Never Mind the Bollocks with original bassist Glen Matlock and producer Dave Goodman. Many fans prefer the raw Spunk ... see all copies from $12.48! new only from $12.48!
6	Filthy Lucre Live (1996) more music like this by The Sex Pistols As the cliche says, the Sex Pistols were the last band anyone expected to see reunite. However, those observers were ignoring just how alluring the promise of easy money is to a band that never earned that much in the first place, so the Sex Pistols did what was previously unthinkable and reunited in 1996 for a summer-long tour of Europe and the ... see all copies from $6.98! new only from $10.79!
7	Extended Versions (2003) more music like this by The Sex Pistols see all copies from $2.05! new only from $2.05!
8	First Generation: Virgin 25 Years (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Most people think of Virgin Records as the multinational recording conglomerate that has proven to be one of the giants of the industry in the 1990s. Indeed, that is true. However, like a lot of big dinosaurs, they got their start as one of the most feisty independents of their time. Virgin XXV Years collects a lot of label material that reflects ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.95!
9	Anarchy in the UK: Live at the 76 Club (1985) more music like this by The Sex Pistols Any Sex Pistols audio from the 1970s has been held in reverence because of the lack of recorded output from the band. Countless live bootlegs, B-sides, and lost tracks have popped up on albums since their self-destruction in the late '70s. Anarchy in the UK: Live at the 76 Club, one of the many live albums, is taken -- as the title suggests -- ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $6.00!
10	Fat Neck (1996) more music like this by Black Grape see all copies from $13.03! new only from $25.00!
11 view cover	Early Daze (1994) more music like this by The Sex Pistols Over the years Dave Goodman (or whoever owns the rights to his tape library) has built a cottage industry out of recycling the various demos and soundboard recordings he made during his 12 months as the Sex Pistols' official soundman, and it would probably take a book to sort out the variations between the dozens of semi-official albums which have ... see all copies from $4.89! new only from $4.89!
12 view cover	Respublika (2002) more music like this by The Ukrainians Are the Ukrainians a force of nature? The band, originally formed as a side project by Wedding Present member Pete Solowka, has become something to be reckoned with over the years. Their presentation of traditional Ukrainian songs is both harder and more tempered on Respublika. Gone is the relentless speeding up during a song that had been one of ... see all copies from $8.65! new only from $8.65!
13 view cover	The Complete Collection (2004) more music like this by Sham 69 As reviled as they were celebrated, Jimmy Pursey and company were the original boot boys from London's notorious East End, the true Cockney kids, and the lot who inadvertently inspired the loads of Oi! and skinhead punk bands that followed. Everyone from the great leftist working-class bands like the Angelic Upstarts and Newtown Neurotics to Nazi ... see all copies from $40.19! new only from $40.19!
14 view cover	There Is No Future (2001) more music like this by The Sex Pistols These pre-Sid Vicious live and demo cuts are mostly decent-sounding versions of songs that have all been released in more notable situations. Pleasant for the completist, but a superfluous, dead-horse flogging for those to whom the name Glen Matlock doesn't mean anything. Brian O'Neill, All Music Guide see all copies from $17.25! new only from $17.25!
15 view cover	Jubilee (Best Of) (2002) more music like this by The Sex Pistols see all copies from $10.40! new only from $12.19!
16 view cover	Kiss This: The Best of the Sex Pistols (1992) more music like this by The Sex Pistols A best-of document including all of the Sex Pistols first and best album plus eight other tracks, Kiss This is a great summation of what made the band great in the studio. Limited editions include a bonus disc (Live in Trondheim, 21st July 1977), hampered by the usual fidelity problems plaguing most of the Pistols' live releases. Jason Ankeny, ... see all copies from $9.09! new only from $9.09!
17 view cover	We Have Cum for Your Children (1988) more music like this by The Sex Pistols Another of the entries in the mini-industry of Sex Pistols marginalia, assembled by the group's onetime soundman, Dave Goodman. The July 1976 demos (of "Submission," "Pretty Vacant," and "Suburban Kid") here are actually very good, from both fidelity and performance standpoints. Elsewhere the quality is much more variable -- live songs, the famous ... see all copies from $7.16! new only from $15.00!
18 view cover	The Swindle Continues (1988) more music like this by The Sex Pistols Another one of the head-scratchers when it comes to the flood of Sex Pistols semi-legal releases, The Swindle Continues attempts to be some sort of counterpart to the official Great Rock & Roll Swindle album, and only partially succeeds. Assembled once more from soundman Dave Goodman's poorly annotated archives -- indeed, there's no description ... see all copies from $7.35! new only from $7.35!
19 view cover	Never Mind the Sex Pistols, Here's the Tribute (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Sometimes a movie makes a band more real, gives them a large-than-life identity. Such is the case of the Sex Pistols, a group seen by more in The Greatest Rock-n-Roll Swindle and Sid and Nancy than from the stage. Radical Records' tribute album Never Mind the Sex Pistols: Here's the Tribute similarly takes that exaggerated identity to try and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
20 view cover	Pretty Vacant Live (1996) more music like this by The Sex Pistols see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.64!
21 view cover	Twice the Balls (2002) more music like this by The Bollock Brothers see all copies from $4.50! new only from $4.50!
22 view cover	Under the Influence (2003) more music like this by The Business see all copies from $18.37! new only from $18.37!
23 view cover	Kamikaze (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Kamikaze compiles mostly live performances by mostly British punk bands, mixed in with a few studio cuts and American groups like the New York Dolls and the Dickies. The sound and performance qualities vary wildly, and there are a few downright obscure bands mixed in with the heavy-hitters, all of which means that this is probably more for ... see all copies from $18.07! new only from $18.07!
24 view cover	Pirates of Destiny (1989) more music like this by The Sex Pistols An audio documentary of sorts, this compilation of odds and ends includes rehearsals, demo recordings, live tracks and interview excerpts with the Sex Pistols' lead singer Johnny Rotten and their manager, Malcolm McLaren, as well as such oddities as the soundtrack of an Australian TV ad and the condemnatory comments of a government official who ... see all copies from $7.35! new only from $7.35!
25 view cover	This Is Punk (2000) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $40.93! new only from $40.93!
