REpost: Capital Radio (The Tommy Vance Show July 16 1977)

Johnny Rotten on Capital Radio
This interview was a turning point in people's perception of John Lydon and his public image. Malcolm McLaren and  Glitterbest hated it. They never wanted him to do it; and were horrified  at his record selections. However, this wasn't just a case of  breaking rank – if it ever even was – it was about music. "Just play the records. They'll speak for themselves. That's my idea of  fun…" The records highlighted John's eclectic musical tastes, and his open-mind. Reggae, folk, soul, avant-garde, and good  old rock'n'roll, it was all there. And not a Stooges or Dolls record in sight.
