Steve Jones & Paul Cook Interview '77 punk

[@K._Oss]

Is it just me or does it feel like Paul Cook was tha most well-spoken & calm out of the Pistols?

[@Frijolero18]

Bluefirefoley After Glen left, definitely.

[@falica77]

Frijolero18 he also had great hair

[@diamond21450]

Bluefirefoley I`m not sure, I have thought that? You can tell that Steve is more ????????

[@lateremortis6115]

Bluefirefoley Nope,. that was Rotten, for sure

[@diamond21450]

heavytom89 What the fuck, they were just being themselves.

[@MisterCritch]

Steve Jones is just so fuckin cool!!!

[@flighttravelreviews4354]

Hahaha Interviewer - How did your parents feel? Steve - I aint seen me parents in fuckin 4 years hahaa

[@mredwards3000]

Great stuff, 2 x very underrated musicians. Jones' guitar sound on NMTB is killer- PC is a great, very tight drummer. Shame thePistols don't get the credit they deserve forbeing a great rockn roll band

[@yummyjackalmeat]

they have received quite a bit of recognition though. from every rock magazine and every best album list and even were supposed to be inducted to the rock and roll hall of fame....

[@thebrazilianatlantis165]

They refused to come to the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame thing because they thought it was stupid. And, since it is stupid... they're smarter than people think.

[@yummyjackalmeat]

Joseph Scott yeah that was awesome...but why would they accept a reward from the industry that either scoffed at them or took atvantage of them when they were practically kids? it was the only thing that made sense honestly.

[@russellsims8197]

Fascinating stuff. They're only in their early 20's. Just a couple of young blokes doing what young blokes do. Amazing to remember all the fuss they generated. Strange times ...

[@lucastrotacielos8053]

cook seems brad pitt here

[@parker9977]

STEVE=LEGEND!!!!!!

[@diamond21450]

[@jill5917]

Steve Jones making bird sounds at 1:18

Jillian Adams i wouldn't have noticed that lol

[@aube_libre]

fuck , every time i hear steve , i hear "you dirty fucker , you dirty old man !" deep down inside me ^^

[@stevewhite8059]

square-magic 'Wot a fuckin' rotter' Ha Ha!

[@JALLOON_JOY]

they're colour co-ordinated

[@WearySisyphus]

they're fucking 21 and 22

[@Nomadmandolin]

We're just ourselves, if people don't like it, tough! Sums up punk rock.

[@cracklinjack___9466]

Sex Pistols. The Clash. Souixe and the Banshees. The Damned. All of these guys are legends. So much influence on the times after. To anyone who wonders exactly the influence? Imagine a grey landscape. Boring, nothing going on. The days bleeding into each other. Now fast forward to the release of Never Mind the Bollocks, and everything has changed. The days no longer bled into each other, there was an opportunity at every second. Clothes, attitude, demeanor, everything changed. That's what it was like. You don't know what I'm talking about? Unless you also witnessed Nirvana, you can never know. Pity

[@divergencefilms]

That's how it was

[@alistairmacdonald2634]

Jones is f**kin' hammered in that interview.

[@jensibowable]

but he still talks like that XD

[@likkidixx]

He's hammered and smoked up, trust me.

[@ajones747]

Maclaren can be seen creeping around in the background - from 10:31

[@SoundsFromTheRock]

What a creep lol

[@killachunes2349]

Typical London youths of the day, just out of their teens, in love with rock music, not rock'n'rollers at all. Cook, completely natural for the most part. Jones, acting surly for the cameras to cover his awkwardness.

[@thebrazilianatlantis165]

"not rock'n'rollers at all" Great rock and roll musicians both of them. _Music_ is an actual thing you know.

[@killachunes2349]

If you were around in the mid-seventies, young people in the UK who were into rock music were en masse identifiable by their look and the bands they followed. Long hair, flared jeans, denim shirts, that sort of thing. If you were in a band and considered yourself a rock 'n' roller it would all be Chuck Berry and the Stones, especially Keith Richards, whose style and mannerisms were the pinnacle of attainment for any self-respecting rock prospect. Jones and Cook were certainly into rock, but they were poorly educated lower working class misfits who were far from typical rock 'n' roll material. Until the appearance of Malcolm McLaren and later on Johnny Rotten in their lives put their talents to good use.

[@weeoth8380]

no I think he was just drunk

[@klausrain111]

These guys are pretty shy, believe it or not. Oh course, they're well aware that Johnny's interviews with the press are some of the best, and had a lot to do with building up the image of the band, and punk rock in general.

[@mertustun5442]

They re just bad talkers unlike Rotten.Rotten really knew how to talk, and still do.

[@thebrazilianatlantis165]

These two played almost all the instruments on Never Mind The Bollocks. Typical musicians: what they really know how to do and would rather be doing is making music.

[@falica77]

he's gotten obnoxious over the years

[@johnnyblythe5375]

Richie B They’re just young and bored being asked the same questions over and over.

[@klausrain111]

@@johnnyblythe5375 Quite true. Not sure about Cookie, but I know Steve was shy back then. ***** Looking at the video again, I have to agree with you more than with my own original comment. Steve's looking at him with a "Can you believe this stupid c*nt?" sort of expression. Seems like Paul can't look back at him or he'll bust out laughing, which is what Steve wants anyway. What stands out now (to me) is how polite they are, total opposite of John.

[@cjparrott]

"people upset us and we do what we can to get on their nerves" 5:45 and such great delivery

[@waltersobchak926]

Jonesy, even burping back then 😂

[@jessicaamber6623]

Johnny Rotten- "Steve got a perm and unfortunately it became permanent"

[@rbar1994]

"She don't give a fuck about us, doesn't she?'

[@thestr8person]

He says "does she" not "doesn't", but yeh he was illiterate until the 90's aswell as talking like every other lad in london at that time and btw your other comment is wrong aswell so your on a roll son.

[@rbar1994]

thestr8person yeah* 90s* as well* London* as well* you're* _comma needed between roll and son._ Moreover, the latter comment is subjective, so how can subjectivity be wrong? You're on a mega-roll, son.

[@rowanleaf9892]

fuck off with your pedantic bullshit

[@rbar1994]

Rowan Leaf Nah, how about you shut the fuck up and quit your bitching.

[@falica77]

This was posted by someone else a while ago but just taken down. Glad to see it again. Always refreshing to see and hear Paul and Steve instead of Rotten gabbing away. Malcolm McLaren can be seen in a trench coat in the background. The boys were given cans of Foster's lager by the interviewer.

[@yellowjackboots2624]

Steve is thinking how he can steal the camera.

[@drea4195]

I love his sly little winks. After all is said and done, I think he's just a teddy bear.

[@wartimemodels]

And to think, they were done as a band 2 months later. Shame. Great band.

[@GrehgYT]

brad pitt?

[@anaccount8474]

Steve Jones is only 22 here, he looks way older. He'd done a lot by that age though, more than some people do in a lifetime.

[@AstroJenkins]

I was about to say, I first watched this around that age, but now that I’m 30, he looks older than me now. I reckon he had a pretty stressful childhood. I haven’t read Lonely Boy, but some bad shit was going down for sure. I think it’s why people generally look older in pre-1950 photos-stress.

[@glenhopkins9608]

Steve Jones guitar is the sound of Pie mash and liquor. Londoners.

[@megaspongebob6]

funny watching this now,Steve Jones comes across as the nicest chap on his radio programme.....great album thoughbut they are probably just playing the punk role.....they all loved prog rock haha

[@c.mcxrdle5224]

these two are just adorable :)

[@jwardbass4452]

i watched this when i was younger and i thought Steve was an inarticulate delinquent but now i realize he was just drunk as fuck lol

[@michaelwuttke5841]

Steve’s speaking has come a long way.

[@stevefraser9249]

Good old Jonesy, drunk as a skunk. Well done to Paul for holding it together.

[@AstroJenkins]

Cookie’s mom sounds cool as hell.

[@falica77]

That's cool that Cookie's mom liked No Fun the best and stuck up for him and the band. I recall reading, back in the day, that Rotten lived at the Cook's home for a bit.

[@kenmills30]

I like the way Jones was a natural boot boy, the working class flares wearing long haired bovver booted predecessors of punks in the UK who seem to have been written out of youth culture history yet it was their pent up aggression that formed the basis and energy of UK punk though the intellectual and fashion elements which were mainly the contribution of middle class types apart from Lydon's genius of course, that tends to dominate the historical perspective. Hardly surprising!

[@benjaminking320]

I wonder if Danny is Ronnie Biggs

[@68marconi]

Funny as fuck interview.

[@999therocker]

The guy had to throw in 150 questions with too much trivia in 15 min. Those guys took it all in stride for a pair of pretty vacant geezers.

[@mebeasensei]

.ha ha…’I wish I could say the same.. (about you)..lol…Cookie being funny. I think they thought Molly was OK

[@iamyourfuture808]

is steve wearing make up?

[@charleshall3372]

Paul Cook took all the Pistols craziness in stride!

[@latitudepost]

Steve Jones is like a character out of a Jean Genet book

[@neilsun2521]

Heh. I've read The Thief's Journal and i know what you mean.

[@lolalopez486]

Hermoso steve 😘😍😗😏

[@rorypkennedy]

Pretty cool.. interviewer could have have asked more about their influences.. ie iggy, dolls, kinks etc... other than that, good bit o banter :)

[@jessieessex]

I like to imagine these two prior to filming the interview. Primping themselves, putting on makeup, trying on outfits, listening to music with a television on, getting loaded.

[@MatthewOfLondon]

All I want to do is climb through my monitor and drop out in that courtyard in 1977 so I can go boozing with these guys.

[@Clariccy]

gawd how does hot topic stuff get here

[@jessieessex]

You know..."marketing".

[@vantheman1234]

Before the interview they’d probably just nicked a car. Nearer to the truth

[@peterstayne3765]

Cookie and Jonesy. Legends!
