Some Product: Carri on Sex Pistols is an interview album featuring members of the Sex Pistols. The interviews are mostly presented in a collage style.

The artwork was done by artist Jamie Reid and the album peaked at #6 in the UK album charts.

The title melds the British comedy series of Carry On films with a pun on the word carrion.
