Due to an unfortunate error at the manufacturing plant the A&M 7” of God Save The Queen has been printed with incorrect label colours and this was only detected after all 1977 individually numbered copies had been pressed.
Despite the well documented challenges facing all vinyl pressing plants currently, the factory have managed to press a further 1977 copies with the correct label in time for release on the 27th May, so anyone who successfully pre-ordered this edition will receive it as originally planned.
Following discussions with the band's management, rather than scrap the 1977 copies of the misprinted 7” we have decided to make this version available too for fans from our store should they wish to purchase it.
When the Sex Pistols made their definitive statement during the Queen’s Silver Jubilee celebrations in 1977 with the incendiary single ‘God Save The Queen’, they produced a manifesto that threatened and delighted in equal measure.
Now, as the nation prepares for another jubilee, the single is back
Dropped by their record label A&M in the midst of controversy after just 6 days, the label destroyed 25,000 copies of the record, making the reportedly 9 remaining, ultra rare collectibles. In honour of this, just 1,977 copies of the re-released A&M version will be available.
Re-creating the original artwork, the A&M version features the rare black slipcase with silver vinyl and includes the original B side No Feeling.
