ENTRENCHED IN HIPPIEDOM?

JOHN Lydon, aka Johnny Rotten, has issued a rebuff to the claim by former Chrysalis boss Chris Wright (see previous post) that he declined to sign the Sex Pistols because he would not have felt "comfortable" watching them with his wife and friends.

Lydon claims  it was the band  who turned down the label, not vice versa.

He says Chrysalis was "still entrenched in hippiedom and obviously not the right place for the Sex Pistols."

In the end, the punk rockers, managed by Malcolm Maclaren, signed with Virgin Records
