<p>A founding member of the legendary punk band Sex Pistols, Steve Jones, admitted he doesn’t often listen to his music and would &#8220;rather listen to Steely Dan,” according to a recent interview with the <a href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/music/artists/steve-jones-tired-sex-pistols-rather-listen-steely-dan/">Telegraph</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;I never really listen to the Pistols&#8217; music anymore,&#8221; Jones shared. &#8220;I&#8217;m f***ing tired of it, to be honest with you. I&#8217;d rather listen to Steely Dan.&#8221;</p>
<p>The rocker explained later to the <a href="https://apnews.com/article/queen-platinum-jubilee-sex-pistols-ede0797caacfc567f2af7cd8bf6cb4d7">Associated Press</a> that his tastes have changed over the years since he&#8217;s gotten older.</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t particularly listen to punk rock anymore. My musical tastes have changed a lot over the years, you know, and I&#8217;m 66 years old,&#8221; Jones said. &#8220;I&#8217;m not a kid anymore. I think it would be a bit silly if I was still flying that flag. I like Steely Dan. Is that bad?&#8221;</p>
<p>He also recently spoke with <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/sex-pistols-steve-jones-looks-back-it-just-seemed-doomed-190912/">Rolling Stone magazine</a> about his new book, &#8220;Lonely Boy: Tales from a Sex Pistol,&#8221; and the guitarist said that the highlight of his career with the band was recording their only studio album “Never Mind the Bollocks, Here&#8217;s the Sex Pistols,” released in 1977. The band split up a year later.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s an album that was so bizarre for these 19, 20-year-olds to do in the structure of the songs,&#8221; Jones explained. &#8220;It&#8217;s just one of them classic albums, if you will. I&#8217;m not pumping myself up. But it&#8217;s a bizarre record.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We didn&#8217;t go for like, &#8216;We need to write a hit song for the record company,’” he added. &#8220;There was none of that. But there&#8217;s a lot of catchy bits in some of the songs. I don&#8217;t know. It&#8217;s just a real weird album. When I do listen to it, I love it.&#8221;</p>
<p>The group&#8217;s history includes its anti-authoritarian anthem &#8220;God Save the Queen,&#8221; which was released during the 1977 Silver Jubilee that marked Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s 25 years on the throne.</p>
<p>However, the group definitely appears to be singing a new tune now, with Jones sharing that he&#8217;s &#8220;not against&#8221; the four-day jubilee extravaganza. The queen is celebrating this week her Platinum Jubilee, marking 70 years on the throne. And in honor of the monarch&#8217;s rule, the band re-released the song.</p>
