Well I have an interesting slightly related tale about the Sex Pistols and a member of my very own family.My Grandfather was an English professor - in the 70s it was his expert testimony that enabled the Sex Pistols to call their LP 'Never Mind The Bollocks' as he attested 'bollocks' was not technically an obscene word.
The band gave him a copy of the LP signed by them all, thanking him for his pivotal assistance.
My lovely old gran gave it to Oxfam in the 80s, unplayed.
AaaaaaAAAAAAAaaaAAAAARRRRGhhHHHHH!!!!
Incidentally during the trial the prosecution tried to belittle my grandfather; 'so, you're an expert on the word 'bollocks' are you?', they asked him (he was wearing his vicar's dog collar for added effect).
'Oh, no', he replied, 'I can tell you all about 'fuck' and 'shit' too'.
