The Sex Pistols punk classic ‘Never Mind The Bollocks Here’s The Sex Pistols’ is now 35 years old and about to be re-released in a deluxe box set.
The collection will include a disc of rarities and B-sides including the 977 demo of ‘Belsen Was A Gas’, the only original Sex Pistols song of the time that until recently was thought not to be recorded.
Tim Young has remastered all tracks in the collection under the direction of original producer Chris Thomas.
The box will also include a DVD of a 1977 live concert, produced by Julien Temple.
A vinyl single of ‘Anarchy In The UK’ was released earlier this year for Record Store Day.
Universal will release the new ‘Never Mind The Bollocks Here’s The Sex Pistols’ on September 28.
