Sex Pistols – Live In The U.S.A (Longhorns Ballroom, Dallas) January 10th 1978

Sex Pistols are releasing three concert recordings for the first time ever. Live in the USA 1978 captures the British punk legends as they whipped audiences in Atlanta, Dallas, and San Francisco. The first concert in the series, Atlanta, arrives February 28 with future releases to follow.

In 1977, Sex Pistols — Johnny Rotten (aka Lydon), Paul Cook, Steve Jones and Sid Vicious — released their first and only record, Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols. The album revolutionized rock'n'roll and offended many listeners along the way.

Here's a radio advertisement ahead of the January 10 show at Dallas' Longhorns Ballroom: "They said no one could be more bizarre than Alice Cooper or more destructive than Kiss. They have not seen the Sex Pistols...Banned in their own home country, England's Sex Pistols denied admittance to the United States — the Sex Pistols bring the new wave to the Metroplex this Tuesday night in the Longhorn Ballroom."
