Steve Jones from the Sex Pistols

A special show to mark National Album Day 2026 and its focus on 'Icons' plus Sex Pistol Steve Jones is Shaun's guest for 'My 70s'.

Sex Pistol Steve Jones is well known as a punk icon, but as well as being guitarist in one of the most notorious bands of the decade, Steve was also (and still is) an enormous music fan.

For this special 'Icons' show, which helps to celebrate 'National Album Day' on Radio 2, Steve shares some of his own early musical influences with Shaun and chats about the tracks and artists which helped shape his own musical journey.

Also on the show, more from 'This Week In Music' and another listener pick for 'Your Classic 70s album'.

Produced by Listen for BBC Radio 2.
