He couldnвЂ™t really say anything! He took it in good sport.вЂќДҐ Name the three bonus tracks on the CD reissue of Rich KidsвЂ™ 1978 album вЂGhosts of Princes in TowersвЂ™? Bowie pulled me up on that and I found myself saying: вЂDavid, you know how it goes: the bitter comes out better on a stolen guitarвЂ™. вЂњWell, Steve Jones вЂre-appropriatedвЂ™ them, yeah. Talking of Bowie вЂ“ didnвЂ™t Sex PistolsвЂ™ once steal his microphones? We were supported by The Cramps and, backstage, Debbie Harry was dressed as a witch and gave me a kiss on the cheek.вЂќ

It was Halloween and the whole audience dressed in costumes. вЂњMy favourite memory of Iggy was touring with him in 1979 and headlining the Palladium in New York вЂ“ my first time in the city. But I really enjoyed playing with Iggy and would have liked to have done more with him, but there was a principle at stake. вЂњOver an argument over about a girlfriend and the lack of cigarettes in the middle of the countryside at 4am! ThatвЂ™s why I stopped playing with Iggy because not only did he mix out SteveвЂ™s bits, Steve had played the hooks for the songs IвЂ™d written. вЂњSome lead guitar was stripped off it because it was by Steve New who ended up punching David Bowie down the stairs.вЂќ

For what reason was some of the lead guitar stripped off it? He might have been вЂњunder the influenceвЂќ.рџі /0hDUr1gJ15Д¤ You collaborated on Iggy PopвЂ™s 1980 solo album вЂSoldierвЂ™.

July 1996 and Alan McGee takes out a full page advert in the NME to discuss his views on The Sex Pistols reunion. In fact, I introduced 3 Colours RedвЂ™s Chris McCormack to Alan McGee, who signed his band.вЂќ It wasnвЂ™t released until 1996 and by that time, weвЂ™d decided to reform the Sex Pistols out of the blue, so they overlapped and people thought I was trying to cash in. вЂњIt was weird, because IвЂ™d been working on the solo album and bumped into Alan McGee in 1995 who wanted to put it out. You released your debut solo album, вЂWhoвЂ™s He Think He Is When HeвЂ™s At HomeвЂ™, on Creation in 1996. вЂњI think NME should have let him write the review! I thought it was even-handed and well-written, but then I normally love people who think weвЂ™re great!вЂќ The band are our alternative Royal Family.вЂќ In his glowing paean, McGee enthuses that he stood with Noel Gallagher who told him the Sex Pistols are вЂњbetter than usвЂќ, and concludes by saying: вЂњBritpop? More like Shitpop. After NME editors refused to let the Creation Records supremo review Sex PistolsвЂ™ 1996 Shepherds Bush Empire gig, he bought a full-page advert in the magazine to print it. вЂњI donвЂ™t want to get involved in all that!вЂќДў Who once paid between ВЈ6,000 вЂ“ ВЈ12,000 (according to differing reports) to review Sex Pistols live for NME?Д¬ORRECT.

ItвЂ™s split the Sex Pistols, with frontman John Lydon calling the TV series вЂњthe most disrespectful shitвЂќ, and an ongoing court case over whether the music can be usedвЂ¦ Danny BoyleвЂ™s a cool talent, so weвЂ™ll see what happens.вЂќ He sent me a link of him playing at the wrap party, where heвЂ™s even putting his feet on the piano like Jerry Lee did. Originally there was another guy meant to play me, but he left to join Game of Thrones and took over whoвЂ™s really good and a musician вЂ“ he portrayed the young Jerry Lee Lewis in the Sun Records biopic series, where he actually played the keyboards. I chatted to Danny Boyle and went down to one filming session and met the cast. HeвЂ™s got a musical pedigree because his parents were in a cabaret band on the QE2. вЂњDo I win anything?! I had a coffee and a chat with him and met his mum and dad as well. 1 Which actor plays you in Danny BoyleвЂ™s forthcoming drama miniseries Pistol?
