The Sex Pistols made an impressive showing in the charts—without ever playing live in America, they did well in the “Best Group” category, not to mention Johnny Rotten’s solo efforts in “Punk Of The Year”, “Fashion Plate”, etc. Everybody raved on about the New Wave—either you hate it or love it, and there ain’t nothing we can tell you to shake you from either side.
Led Zeppelin toured for the first time in several years, and the results show. Bonzo and John Paul Jones finally won in their categories. No trend there.
