Who was the bass player in the sex pistols?

For a while it was rumoured that their ex-bassist Glen Matlock was brought in as a session musician but this has been refuted by both Matlock and engineer Bill Price. It is generally regarded that guitarist Steve Jones overdubbed the bass parts after the initial guitar / drum tracks were recorded. Sid Vicious is rumoured to have attempted bass parts for the songs "Bodies" and "Submission" but was unable to play to a satisfactory standard. It is rumoured that his bass part is hidden deep in the mix on the album version of "Bodies" and on the alternate take of "Submission" featured on the Box Set. On both tracks Steve Jones bass parts are the only prominent ones to be heard.


What does SID stand for in SID Vicious?

Sid Vicious's real name is John Ritchie. Since he lived with a few other Johnnys, it was inevitable that he would get a nickname. Sid doesn't stand for anything. It was a name given to him by his roommates, one of them being Johnny 'Rotten' Lydon. Rotten had a hampster that was really cute named Sid, and one day it attacked his finger; he cried out "Sid is so vicious!" Some time later, Ritchie- who was known amongst his friends for being quiet and rather calm- got in a fight with a Bouncer and was kicked out of a bar. His friends were so surprised that quiet Johnny Ritchie spazzed out that they renamed his Sid Vicious. He took it as his stage name when the Sex Pistols formed.

How much is a sid vicious autograph worth?

This really depends one two things: 1). how much the owner plans to sell it for and 2). how much the potential buyer is willing to pay for. I think it may be worth a bit, (upwards $200), because a nice poster or Sid Vicious is a cool piece of memorabilia to have, (especially if your a Sex Pistols fan!)
