Description: Never Mind The Bullocks...Here's The Sex Pistols Limited-edition (200) screenprint using silver and purple inks on a red background, printed on heavy paper stock, measuring 39.5"h x 28.5"w overall. Signed and numbered in pencil by the artist, Jamie Reid, from the 1997 edition published with the Artificial Gallery in New York. Printed by Ambassador, NYC. Licensed by Polygram Merchandising (stamped on back). These prints were produced by Jamie Reid and Artifical in 1997 for Reid's "Peace is Tough" exhibition marking the "20th Anniversary of the birth of Punk Rock", where new color combinations were introduced (or, as it was described in the original catalog that accompanied the exhibition "...reworked, updated impression(s) that stay true to the original aesthetic.").

Never Mind the Bullocks was the Sex Pistols' confrontational, impolite, hysterically funny and unforgettable 1977 hit record.

In 1987, Rolling Stone magazine called it the 2nd most-important record album of the previous 20 years (2nd only to The Beatles' Sgt. Peppers album) and then again, in 2003 it was ranked #43 in their "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" poll results. In 2006, Time magazine included it in their list of the 100 best albums of all time. The Sex Pistols knew exactly how to deliver the message that the British working class was fed up with both their stagnant condition and the utter conventionality of the society that they (and much of the Western world) suffered through every day. They were bored, they were pissed-off, and they were going to channel that fury and energy into their song-writing, playing and delivery of that message.... more
