NewsSex Pistols/ Never Mind The Bollocks box set track listing
UK Pre-order Super Deluxe Edition
GERMANY Pre-order Super Deluxe Edition
Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols will now be issued as a Super Deluxe Edition on 24 September in the UK (likely 25th for US).
The original master tapes for the recording sessions in 1977 – thought to be lost for many years – have been used to create the content of this set. The tapes were apparently rediscovered during the album’s move from Virgin Records to Universal Music Catalogue in January 2012.
The tapes have been remastered, for the very first time, by Tim Young under direction from original producer Chris Thomas.
Overview of the contents:
- CD1 – Never Mind The Bollocks Here’s The Sex Pistols: 2012 Re-mastered, from the thought lost original master tapes with process overseen by original producer Chris Thomas.
- CD2 – 1977 Studio Rarities & B-Sides: Previously unreleased 1977 recordings including the legendary Belsen Was A Gas with John on vocals plus the original single b-sides, again all remastered from the original master tapes.

There’s an exciting idea present there with the 7″ of the withdrawn God Save the Queen single.
How about a deluxe edition Thompson Twins release of Here’s to Future Days, with a DVD of that tour and a 7″ and 12″ of the immediately withdrawn/recalled Rollover single??!!
Personally, I am done with vinyl, and I’d be happier with having that material in a digital format. However, it would look very cool!
Or New Order deluxe edition Technique with a 7″ and 12″ of the very limited release Run 2?
And of course, Act’s withdrawn 7″ and 12″ of Chance, if they could finally get Abba’s permission to clear the samples on it. I think ZTT still has the original recalled singles sitting in boxes! I don’t think there were any samples on the 7″ that would keep it from being released.
“ever get the feeling you’ve been cheated…haha….”
frankly I will be giving this one a miss at this ludicrous price…. for a load of scratchy demos ; got enough from the last box set effort. Fully expect the best bits to be re-released, in due course, in a more digestible form…. I will wait.
i had forgotten of S.P.O.T.S (Sex Pistols On Tour Secretly)! for a while i used that as the best example to show people the difference between an acronym (a word made from the initials of a phrase or term) and mere initials (EMI, RCA, etc).
the box looks ace, perhaps a bit rich for my wallet but you never know!
Frank, I *think* he is referring to these songs:
5. New York (Demo Version)
6. Unlimited Edition (Demo Version of ‘EMI’)
7. Liar (Demo Version)
8. Pretty Vacant (Demo Version)
9. Problems (Demo Version)
10. No Future (Demo Version of ‘God Save The Queen’)
no vinyl. shame.
Well there actually, the 7inch repo of A&Ms GSTQ.
Usually there is a vinyl edition at some point–probably is in 180gr already. This looks nice, though!
you wrote: “** = these 6 demo’s would make up the legendary ‘Spunk’ album but are heard here for the very first time in their original, untouched form following the very recent discovery of the original master tapes.” Which six demos is this footnote referring to? Thx.
