News last week that Battersea Power Station in London was up for sale prompted me to think of other iconic buildings that have been associated with great moments in Rock and Roll History. Battersea Power Station is significant to most people around the world for having been featured on the cover of Pink Floyd’s 1977 LP “Animals”, not forgetting an appearance in the 1965 Beatles film “Help!”.
T-SHIRT NOW SOLD!
Attention all Sex Pistols Memorabilia Collectors - Sid Vicious’ red swastika t-shirt is being offered for sale.
Vicious wore the t-shirt in 1978, most famously creating outrage when he wore it to stroll around the streets of Paris in footage shot for the film The Great Rock N Roll Swindle. The t-shirt was designed by notorious manager of the Sex Pistols, Malcolm McLaren, who recently died of cancer.
This iconic piece of clothing has impeccable provenance and is perhaps one of the most memorable worn by Sid Vicious. It sums up everything that Punk and the Sex Pistols stood for – rebellion, controversy and provocation.
