Nancy Spungen

Nancy, Bettie Ringma, Sable Starr, and Elliot Kidd at CBGB in nyc, late 1976.

“I saw these two girls and they looked totally out of place there. It was a totally funky place, with everything tattered and run-down. And here were these dressed-up, long-haired girls. I said to Marc, these are not musicians, but let’s just take a picture with them. And then later Nancy Spungen became Sid Vicious’s girlfriend, and you know what happened there. Sad story.” - Bettie Ringma.

“BONDAGE SUIT” — S/S 1976 VIVIENNE WESTWOOD x MALCOLM MCLAREN

This bondage suit in black cotton was designed by Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren for their Spring/Summer collection in 1976. It consists of a genderless matching two-piece jacket and trousers. The trousers have a zippered seam under the crotch and a detachable black towelling 'bum flap' and 'hobble' straps. The look is completed with black boots and a beret and handkerchief depicting the Sex Pistols logo. The outfit borrows elements from army combat gear, the motorcyclist's Belstaff and fetish wear, and was the archetypal Punk outfit popularised by bands like the Sex Pistols.

Caroline Coon: "...Everybody was exhausted from the Anarchy tour. I wanted to have a traditional Christinas. Fortunately, Jonh Ingham was house-sitting a huge house just off Ladbroke Grove. I did turkey, Christmas pudding and all the trimmings. It was an open house: everybody from all the main bands came...".

FOR PISTOLS COMPLETISTS ONLY -- ALL SIX DEMOS WITH GLEN MATLOCK ON BASS GUITAR.

PIC INFO: Spotlight on "The Mini Album" BY the SEX PISTOLS, initially released in January 1985 under the Chaos (catalog no. APOCA 3; vinyl 12") label and consisting of previously unreleased songs recorded in 1976 with the band's original line-up.

"In 1985, a flood of new Sex Pistols records — legal, dubious and plainly unauthorized — began appearing. "The Mini Album" (issued in the US three years later and then expanded in the UK and re-released as the CD-only Mini Album Plus) consists of a half-dozen early album outtakes (July ’76, with Matlock), probably from the same studio supply as those issued on "Spunk.""
