Some Product: Carri on Sex Pistols is an interview album, an often overlooked curiosity in the Sex Pistols' catalogue, though the record has been reissued on CD even after the group managed to win back control over their band name and recordings. The interviews are mostly presented in a collage style. Highlights include Sid Vicious telling the listener to "Buy my record and make me a millionaire!" and Paul Cook and Steve Jones' hilarious appearance on an American radio show. It also features audio from the band's infamous appearance on the TV show Today which received a number of complaints from viewers due to their use of bad language.
The Sex Pistols were always famous for their controversial and humorous interviews, and with suitably iconoclastic Jamie Reid artwork, this unconventional (and patently unmusical) album managed to climb to #6 in the UK album charts.
