SEX PISTOLS
LP
Spunk !
PINK VINYL
500 MADE !

Official release of the original
demo version of
NMTB.
Several parties, including some
journalists in the
British music press, immediately
suspected that the
band's manager, Malcolm McLaren,
was responsible
for the original Spunk bootleg.
This would have
been in breach of the band's
record contract with
Virgin, which was readying the
release of Never
Mind the Bollocks when Spunk
appeared. An
October 1977 Sounds article by
Chas de Whalley
discussed Spunk and made
reference to this
conveniently coincidental timing.
The evidence for
McLaren's involvement is
speculative, although it
can be noted that his company,
Glitterbest, retained
the rights to the demo recordings
as well as the
master tapes – and the demos
appearing on Spunk
were presented in excellent
quality.
Some Sex Pistols fans concur with
McLaren – and
producer Goodman – that the raw versions of
the
songs on Spunk are superior to
the officially
released ones, particularly since
Spunk
approximates a faithful
reproduction of the original
Sex Pistols line-up's live sound.
The album also
features the bass-lines of Glen
Matlock, which were
not reproduced when guitarist
Steve Jones took
over bass duties for the
recording of Never Mind the
Bollocks.
Spunk is therefore often cited as
the Sex Pistols' de
facto alternative debut album.
Certainly a tape of
part or all of Spunk had been
played to Tony
Parsons as early as March 1977,
and became the
subject of his NME article,
"Blank Nuggets in the
UK", which described the
recordings as if they
represented an imminent debut
album
release.
