But then didn't McClaren claim that Glen was sacked for liking the Beatles? He did but all that was part of the hype, given that Steve Jones liked Elvis and Journey. Instead of fixing the problem and having a band that could play basically but decently he went for shock with poor old Sidney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even so, if he liked beaten up basses he didn't have to destroy a new one to make it his, did he, he could have simply used his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Lydon later on said that the tensions between Matlock and the rest of the were either initiated by or fabricated by Malcom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only bass is an acoustic given to me by my wife (because I asked for it) and I would prefer to remain married. Were I to receive basses from the record company at no cost I'd be all over them with one of Stanley's best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
