Originally a bootleg leaked about a month prior to the slicker sounding Never Mind the Bollocks album, Spunk is a collection of demos that eventually received an official release itself in various forms over the years. It's not as frantic as NMtB, and the vocals are sadly lacking the stylistic Lydon sneer in places, but the rawness and lack of production is appealing to some Pistols fans. It was pre-Sid, so has Glen Matlock on all bass parts. If you know NMtB well, you'll notice a few lyric changes had taken place before its eventual release. It's perhaps one for fans only.
Songs of Note: Nookie (Anarchy in The U.K); No Future (God Save the Queen)
