Guarnaccia, Matteo
The punk play book.
Mm 270x345 Nuovo - "Questo album va in stampa a quarant'anni esatti dalla nascita del punk, ed è dedicato a una delle rivolte giovanili più scenografiche della storia. Una provocazione spillata che ha avuto una vita breve ma agitata (1976-1980) e che ha lasciato un segno profondo nel nostro immaginario. Tra strappi e creste, catene e lamette, pelli borchiate e ritmi veloci, smorfie e spintoni, si è conquistata un posto in prima fila nell'olimpo dello stile. Il punk è il prodotto della crisi economica, del fallimento delle ideologie, del brusco risveglio dal sogno di Pace e Amore degli anni Sessanta, ma è anche una salutare reazione alla noia e alla boria dei professionisti della cultura. È un'attitudine ribelle e maleducata, ma anche una musica energetica, interpretata da personaggi scombinati, in abiti di scena selvaggi: dai Sex Pistols ai Clash, da Iggy Pop ai Ramones. A dispetto della sua radicalità nichilista, della sua promessa/profezia di "No Future", ha garantito un futuro al sistema moda, suggerendogli nuove idee. La sua violenza ritualizzata, il suo terrorismo visivo si è trasformato in un fortunato stereotipo sartoriale. Ora, vi invito a giocare al punk, ritagliando e colorando, incollando e assemblando figure che rimandano ai luoghi, ai tic e agli eroi cult della scena - e a godervi l'istruttivo supplemento dedicato alla madrina del movimento, la stilista Vivienne Westwood e alle sue folli creazioni." (M. G.). Brossura editoriale con piatto posteriore in cartone, 96 pagine. Nuovo-new. SPEDIZIONE IN 24 ORE DALLA CONFERMA DELL'ORDINE.

Punk: Sex Pistols
Original Promo Poster for US Release of NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS.
Los Angeles: Warner Bros. 1977. First Edition. Very good. 33" x 24" approx. color poster printed verso only. Folded in sixths presumably as issued. Some wear at edges. Very good. <br/><br/>Original 1977 promotional poster for the US release of the Sex Pistol's only studio album NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS HERE'S THE SEX PISTOLS. Featuring a large B&W image of Rotten with a smaller photo inset of the band and a two line quotation from "No Future" "We're the flowers in the dustbin." the poster lacks the signature Jamie-Reid designed intensity of the Pistols' UK promotional items. Warner Brothers Records signed the Pistols in October 1977 and released BOLLOCKS less than a month later - rushing the album into print in order to capitalize on the various UK Pistols controversies as well as the band's upcoming and ultimately aborted US tour. Scarce. Not in Burgess and Parker but reproduced in Savage's ENGLAND'S DREAMING see color photo inset. Warner Bros. unknown books

REID Jamie: Sex Pistols
Original Handbill Advertising the Sex Pistols at the 100 Club Oxford Street London June 29 and July 6 1976
London: np 1976. First Edition. Very Good. Handbill. 8 1/4" x 11 3/4". Printed recto only. Very good with some flattened creases and a 1/3” edge tear on the bottom. Artwork by Jamie Reid featuring a repeated image of Rotten/Lydon snarling into a mic. <br/><br/>Beginning in 1976 The Sex Pistols' took up Tuesday night residency at the 100 Club a venue better known until then for jazz gigs that would be pivotal for the band. As Jon Savage has written in his definitive ENGLAND'S DREAMING: "In the intimate setting of the 100 Club the group could relax enough to take risks with their material and their performances. There they began to master their equipment using the acoustics of the small club to experiment with overload feedback and distortion. Electric amplification had provided much of the excitement of early Rock'n'Roll: pushing their equipment to the limit . the Sex Pistols twisted their limited repertoire into a noise as futuristic as their rhetoric" 177. The club also served as location for the famed 100 Club Punk Special a two-day festival featuring the Pistols The Damned The Buzzcocks The Clash Siouxsie and the Banshees and other unsigned acts an event that was instrumental in bringing punk to the mainstream. It was also at the 100 Club pogoing was first invented a development often attributed to Sid Vicious but more likely simply fans' practical response to poor visibility in the tight confines of the club. Describing the June 29th date of which bootlegs exist Savage writes: "But the 100 Club take is something else. Here the Pistols are wound up to a pitch of impossible tautness: they swoop and drive through their fifteen songs more than half of all they would ever play in their brief life." This performance also almost certainly marked the first public performance of "Flowers of Romance." In addition the July 6 date is significant the first “real” show by The Damned who opened. Together two landmark performances for the group that defined British punk rock. While Reid's more commercial work for the Pistols appears with some regularity early and ephemeral promotional items like this are decidedly more scarce. And after Reid's iconic "God Save the Queen" flyer arguably the defining Sex Pistols handbill perfectly combining the raw energy of the group with Reid's signature punk style. This image was also utilized by Reid in his design of the Sex Pistols' press kit. See Reid & Savage UP THEY RISE p. 49 and Burgess and Parker SATELLITE p. 79.
