Sex Pistols - ‘The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle’ sticker

Promotional sticker for the wildly inconsistent but often entertaining collection, the soundtrack to the Sex Pistols' pseudo-documentary contains great music, wacked-out novelties, and flat-out tripe in approximately equal proportions. Some formative recordings were included on the album-- mostly covers like ‘(I'm Not Your) Stepping Stone’ plus a demo of ‘Anarchy in the U.K.’ that somehow manages to top the version on Never Mind the Bollocks in terms of raw rage and sheer power. ‘I Wanna Be Me’ and a veiled chronicle of the band's breakup, ‘Silly Thing’

Got the record, now get the sticker!
