What to know about the Blank Back Version
Between the end of August '77 & September '77, members of the Sex Pistols could not decide if the record was going to be released with or without 'Submission'. To speed up the band Richard Branson decided to press an 11 track version without 'Submission', and non-featuring - on purpose - a back cover without any titles. 1000 copies were pressed but the band changed their mind and finally decided to include the song on the record.

Rather than send the whole batch to the bin, Branson decided to recycle the copies exclusively on the promotional circuit, but the Barclay release caused him to change his masterplan again and Virgin Records sent most of the copies to France in order to counter attack Barclay on its own playground, although some copies were also sold in the UK, Sweden and USA, and possibly others countries as a single album without any single or poster bonus.

CONDITION: VINYL IS IN BEAUTIFUL SHAPE (LOOKS LIKE IT WAS MAYBE PLAYED A FEW TIMES-SEE PHOTO), COUPLE OF VERY LIGHT/FAINT BRUSH/HAIRLINES, BUT NOTHING DETRACTING (SEE PHOTOS), COVER SHOWS ONLY THE LIGHTEST SIGNS OF WEAR IN A COUPLE OF SPOTS (SEE PHOTOS) BUT OVERALL STILL IN VERY NICE SHAPE TOO (SEE PHOTOS), ALL & ALL A BEAUTIFUL COPY OF A KILLER PUNK / HARDCORE / KBD 12" THAT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO UPGRADE!!

WE HAVE A TENDENCY TO UNDER-GRADE JUST TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE!!
