Sometimes it takes an apt person to make the link. Malcolm McLaren told me in the mid-nineties that he had had talks with Syd Barrett to produce The Sex Pistols´ “Never Mind the Bollocks“-LP around 1976. Unfortunately, Barrett was „not in a state to cooperate on this project“, as Malcolm put it. cheers, GD -------------------------------------------- STATION ROSE est. 1988 Gary Danner (music) www.stationrose.com <http://www.stationrose.com/> coming in 2018: STATION ROSE 30.0 -------------------------------------------
