Sex Pistols: The End is Near 25.12.77 – Hardcover

Sex Pistols: The End is Near 25.12.77 follows Kevin Cummins, the preeminent photographer of British bands over the last four decades, as he captures the final UK gig of the infamous Sex Pistols on Christmas Day, 1977.  The punk band, at the center of a tabloid frenzy and banned from just about every venue in the country, had booked themselves into a small club in Huddersfield to perform a benefit in support of striking West Yorkshire firefighters.  Every frame Kevin shot is here, for the first time, in this book of more than 150 color and black and white photographs, each beautifully capturing Johnny Rotten, Sid Vicious, Steve Jones, and Paul Cook as they play together for the last time in their home country. Just weeks later The Pistols would break up and a year later, Sid would be dead.
