And now here I am drinking cappuccino and talking to you so things couldn’t really be any better. I have been travelling and gigging and so yes, everything is great at this moment in time. I have been doing loads of press and interviews relating to that.

It has taken me quite a while but it’s all good to go finally. I am pretty busy gearing up to getting the record out finally. Life at the moment I have to say is pretty good. I’m very well thank you and let me firstly thank you for taking the time to speak to me today. Hello Kevin I’m doing okay thanks, how are you doing? Whilst busy preparing for his residency at Boisdale Of Canary Wharf and the release of his latest album, he took some time out of his busy schedule to have a chat with Kevin Cooper and this is what he had to say. He toured with a loose collective of punk and post-punk stars, Dead Men Walking, which included Mike Peters of The Alarm, Kirk Brandon of Theatre Of Hate and Spear Of Destiny, and Pete Wylie of Wah! He is now a member of Slinky Vagabond with Earl Slick, Clem Burke, and Keanan Duffty. He played bass guitar and sang for a time in the bands The Philistines and The Flying Padovanis. Matlock rejoined the original Sex Pistols members for reunion tours in 1996, 2002, 2003, 20. Matlock was replaced by Sid Vicious, and went on to form Rich Kids, a new wave power pop band, with himself as bass guitarist and singer, Midge Ure (guitarist, singer and keyboard player), Steve New (guitarist and singer) and Rusty Egan (drummer).Īfter the Rich Kids he formed the Spectres with Tom Robinson Band guitarist Danny Kustow, and subsequently Mick Hanson, and then Hot Club in 1982 with guitarist James Stevenson and singer Steve Allen. In the 2000 documentary The Filth And The Fury, the band members generally agreed that there was tension between Matlock and Rotten, which Matlock suggests was exacerbated by Malcolm McLaren’s attempts to pit the two men against each other. He left the band in February 1977, before the album was released citing the reason for doing so was that he was “sick of all the bullshit”. He is officially credited as being a co-author on ten of the twelve songs on Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols, although this has always been a contentious issue. Glen Matlock is an English musician best known for being the bass guitarist in the original line-up of the punk rock band the Sex Pistols.
