Cover Notes: 40 plus years on, the Sex Pistols' output from their original creative period together, forged amidst times of poor leadership and economic turmoil, continues to resonate in ways most could never have imagined. Not least those Stateside who witnessed the performances that make up this release. A document of the last days of the band, left to run adrift by absent management on a label that didn't really understand, in a country that arguably felt more threatened than it did excited by the prospect of the group, 'vital', 'primal' and 'compelling' are all words that can be used to describe the audio and here. Until their return as a live entity in 1996, everything that followed their short, fateful tour of America in January 1978 was simply a parody of what had been. With concerts finally released in full and correctly sequenced for the very first time - 'Live In the U.S.A. 1978' takes us back to the moment the creative force that was Sex Pistols imploded. This 3CD set includes recordings of three concerts. The raw production captures the essence of a live experience, giving listeners a powerful snapshot of a significant moment in punk history. CD1 - 'Live in the U.S.A. 1978 - Atlanta' (1LP) - on January 5th 1978 the Sex Pistols ignited their inaugural US tour in Atlanta at the Great Southeast Music Hall.; CD2 - 'Live in the U.S.A. 1978 - Dallas' (1LP) - on January 10th 1978 the Sex Pistols continued their US tour playing at the Longhorns Ballroom, Dallas; CD3 - Live in the U.S.A. 1978 - San Francisco' (1LP) - on January 14th 1978 the Sex Pistols closed their US tour at the Winterland Ballroom, San Francisco.
