the pistols were all about stripping it down and getting back to basic rock and roll .. a la the eddie cochrane covers (scuse me if i spelled his name wrong) everything i heard about the pistols were that it was all noise, they couldnt play, etc , etc ... then i heard the bollocks album and it blew my socks off .. to this day it's still one of the best rock albums of all times.

I started with the first clash album and bought pretty much every one that came out (all on vinyl - still have them) i could never listen to more than one or two songs at a time ... and by the time Combat Rock hit - and radio clash ? ugh ... its terrible... like i said - personal preference - i dont dislike them but i was never that crazy about them .. but i fucking love the pistols ..

:rolleyes: Combat Rock...... terrible album.
I've never really been huge on The Clash either. They defintaley had some great songs but none of their albums have ever really kept me interested. I watched their move Rude Boy recently and enjoyed it a lot. The Pistols and a lot of the 'punk' bands mentioned here are rock n roll bands to me. Punk for me never really kicked of until bands like Crass and Discharge came onto the scene. But as far as I'm concerned is more an attitude than a style of music. The first punk in my opinion was Hank Williams then their were the 60s garage bands like The Sonics (these guys started the so-called 'punk sound' and were highly influential on bands like the MC5, Stooges ect).

Sid didn't even know how to play. That should speak volumes about their "talent" level. :rolleyes:

The put out a pretty fucking awesome album I say that shows talent. Good music isn't about technique...... there's plenty of artists that can do amazing stuff techwise that in my opinion are untalented hacks in my eyes.

it's impossible to put out an album that good without some form of talent ... raw energy used effectively is talent ... so yeah. (although Malcolm may have had more talent than all of them) like said in an earlier post - there are people who are extremely competent with their instruments - but they lack something ... look at an obvious example ... celine dion .... sure she has a powerful incredible voice - but she choses to use it on garbage music (in my opinion) the technically proficient members of Yes have talent ... but i'd take Bollocks over any Yes album anyday... yeah i'd say that the pistols were talented ... maybe not technically proficient - but that didnt matter as far as the music they chose to make ...
