About this product

Product Information

"I have no time for lies and fantasy, and neither should you. Enjoy or die..." --"John Lydon"Punk has been romanticized and embalmed in various media. An English class revolt that became a worldwide fashion statement, punk's idols were the Sex Pistols, and its sneering hero was Johnny Rotten.Seventeen years later, John Lydon looks back at himself, the Sex Pistols, and the "no future" disaffection of the time. Much more than just a music book, "Rotten "is an oral history of punk: angry, witty, honest, poignant, crackling with energy. Malcolm McLaren, Sid Vicious, Chrissie Hynde, Billy Idol, London and England in the late 1970s, the Pistols' creation and collapse...all are here, in perhaps the best book ever written about music and youth culture, by one of its most notorious figures.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

  • JOHNNY IN HIS OWN WORDS (AND THOSE OF OTHERS)

    Johnny is unafraid to confront the truth - his own frailties, his positive attributes and his circumstances. He is, in other words, not afraid of reality. Not afraid to discuss things frankly and show sensitivity besides. Mr. Lydon has contributed a great deal to music; the hype over persons in his first band and the image they fought with notwithstanding, the music of PIL and Sex Pistols, plus his own "Psycho's Path" show a man who is not afraid to experiment and do his utmost to be groundbreaking and original, to wonderful effect. His story is thought provoking, deep, and a sociological tome in addition to slicing away the "mythology" that swirls around this band - the hype that keeps some from investigating the music in lieu of letting this individual who lived it explain what ...

  • ROTTEN: No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs

    AMAZING Book! The best ever on the topic of the Sex Pistols. Contains a lot of "insider" info & background on Sid Vicious. Rotten aka Lydon writes beautifuly & candidly, with his ever present sarcasm. He comes across as very likable actually. Interesting little know info about his wife and their history (she's beautiful by the way, there's a lovely pic of her towards the end of the book.) Highly Recommended for anyone even remotely interested in the punk scene and/or The Pistols TRUE history! This was purchased from an excellent seller at an extremely affordable price.

  • Straight from the man who was there.

    A very in depth and accurate account of the most revolutionary and reactionary musical groups of the 20th century.

  • good read

    classic case of not knowing this book existed, or I would have bought it years ago big fan of the music of the era, and of PiL, great read, nice to hear from the artist, instead of a directors or writers view of the era,
