Sex Pistols originally signed to A&M Records, and 25,000 copies of God Save The Queen were pressed before A&M's Herb Alpert reportedly destroyed the Sex Pistols' recording contract six days after signing. The A&M Records pressing of God Save The Queen remains one of the rarest punk records of all-time.
