Sex Pistols - Live in Winterland - Top punk rock concert bands
61.04 minutes
Live at Winterland 1978 is a live album by Sex Pistols, first released in its entirety in 1997. The last two songs were released in 1980 by Island Records on their two-disc TROUBLEMAKERS, bookending the compilation.

This is the Sex Pistols last ever concert, recorded in San Francisco. After what would seem like closing with Anarchy in the UK, Johnny Rotten came back on stage with his bandmates already playing "No Fun", said "You'll get one number and one number only cuz I'm a lazy bastard. This is 'No Fun'."

At the end of "No Fun", Rotten says one of his more infamous quotes, with the end of the band upon him, "Ahaha, ever get the feeling you've been cheated? Good night!"

The Sex Pistols are an English punk rock band that formed in London in 1975. The band are widely credited with initiating the punk movement in the United Kingdom and creating the first generation gap within rock and roll.

The Sex Pistols originally comprised vocalist Johnny Rotten, guitarist Steve Jones, drummer Paul Cook and bassist Glen Matlock. Matlock was replaced by Sid Vicious in early 1977. Although their initial career lasted only three years and produced only four singles and one studio album, Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols, the group has been described by the BBC as "the definitive English punk rock band."

The Sex Pistols emerged as a response to the bombastic progressive rock and sentimental pop that dominated the music market in the mid-1970s. Under the management of impresario Malcolm McLaren, the band created controversies which captivated Britain. Their concerts repeatedly faced difficulties with organisers and authorities and public appearances often ended in mayhem. Their 1977 single "God Save the Queen" was regarded as an attack on the monarchy and British nationalism.

In January 1978, at the end of a turbulent US tour, Rotten left the band and announced its breakup. Over the next several months, the three other band members recorded songs for McLaren's film version of the Sex Pistols' story, The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. Vicious died of a heroin overdose in February 1979. In 1996, Rotten, Jones, Cook and Matlock reunited for the Filthy Lucre Tour; they staged two further reunion shows in 2002, and undertook tours in 2003, 2007 and 2008. On 24 February 2006, the Sex Pistols were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but they refused to attend the ceremony, calling the museum "a piss stain".
