Writer John L Williams remembers the stifling summer that loosened societal norms and laid the foundations for modern-day Britain. "Just six baking hot weeks after they first played to 40 people, the Sex Pistols returned to an audience of at least three times as many. When they played, the violence of the music swiftly provoked actual violence in the crowd." Read by Dean Rehman Abridged by Rosemary Goring Produced by Eilidh McCreadie A 麻豆社 Audio Scotland production for 麻豆社 Radio 4.
