Trashy clothes and safety pins weren`t really a `fashion`.It was Lydon wearing (who came from a council estate) old clothes when he couldn`t afford anything better.Safety pins closed holes.But it did set a trend.

It's well established - the Pistols stole this riff from the Jam. Study your music history, mate. Then again, it's all about what you do with it. The Jam stole the bassline from the Beatles' "Taxman" for "Start" and, quite frankly, improved upon it, so ultimately, talent trumps 'originality.'

OK but the Sex Pistols were the revolutionary band,the first punk band,thats much more important than copyning someones guitar riff if that was the case.

No, the sex pistols certainly were not the first punk band. Great as they were, they were fashioned on an existing model that was emerging, coming from the New York bar CBGBs and from the avant garde end of the UK music scene. Perhaps you're confused because the much of the Pistol's 'look' spawned what we might perceive to be the stereotypical fashion of punks.

What are you on about?It aint just about the music,it was about attitude.None of the New York bands had that.Punk started with attitude and that was what The Sex Pistols had.They adopted the sound yes but they were the first punk band.

Resorting to expletives now?You think the Jam were the most prominant band in the Punk scene?Were they fuck you little dick.

A pop band from the UK on such drugs would be call for references to Mod bands, like an early The Who, The Action, The Creation, The Move... But comparing it to The Beatles (who were Teddy Bears and not Mod, even if they used amphetamines in Hamburg), is not smart...

whatever. they all turned into hippies and clowns in end. petty rivalries and goofy classifications are the thing of pop tabloid stupidity. where I'm from it's all music and it's good or it's not. as i said before luv the jam just a passing comment and if you want to learn more about music history instead of brit-pop pseudo-legend visit New Orleans and I'll show you music history that will make your head spin.
