Original Sex Pistols bassist and songwriter Glen Matlock cuts a down-to-earth and easy-going character. His exit from the band is now widely regarded as one significant reason the Pistols imploded shortly after the release of their debut album; Never Mind The Bollocks.
That record in 1977 helped thrust punk into the mainstream and is still heralded as a classic. Matlock, however, is on his way to Ireland to celebrate another seminal album from the same year, Iggy Pop’s Lust For Life.
