Review
The long-established collectibility of this album rests on just one point -- the fact that it was released by Factory Records, during that label's first flush of limited-edition oddity mania. Originally issued on cassette only, it follows on from the previous year's Carri on Sex Pistols album in delivering no music. Rather, it's a gathering of interview material, featuring bandmembers, colleagues, and implacable foes alike -- with the opening railing from MP {%Bernard Brook Partridge} still horrifying in its intensity. This is a pop group you're talking about, man; that's all. The remainder of the album has its highlights, but overall, it's a shoddy job, and Sex Pistols collectors shouldn't be too upset if they can't locate a copy at a reasonable price. There are far better rarities to save up for. ~ Dave Thompson, All Music Guide
