The little guy going inside the house at the first seconds is Mike Biggs, He was pretty famous as a kids singer group member called Balão Magico in the 80s
Gentleman? He got a dishonourable discharge from the RAF for doing a burglary and liaised about a song called Cosh The Driver, which we all know what it means. Johnny Rotten had left by then, and didn't like the 'great' train robbery. Biggs was a criminal waster. There's no honour amongst criminal rats.
Faaackin' 'ell, Christ on a bike, me old China! This really brought back memories of Ronald Arfur! We used to live daarn the road from him, in the same district of Santa Teresa, one day he called me (a 13-year-old kid) to tag along to the Corcovado wiv de crew. RIP Ron!
My dad gave me money for my birthday and I bought this on 12” with the interview on the B side. My dad said let me hear your new record, so I puts the B side on by mistake full of expletives. The old man goes crazy and makes me give it away to one of my mates. I was gutted.
And a surprisingly good voice for a Great Train Robber too! That was the day I was born. You've gotta hand it to Malcolm McLaren, he had some good marketing ideas.
@@simonwoods8809 Biggs was not involved with what happened at the front of the train regarding the driver, he only played a very small part in the robbery.
@@Eleventhearlofmars He was however a life long criminal. This was by no means the first of his misdemeanours. A wrong'un although not the worst such I'll admit.
I reckon he'd have sounded 100 times better on his deathbed than Billie Idol at last year's Glastonbury. What an utter load of trash. Steve Jones was calling him a wanker before they started.
til he done a bunk! haha, What a way to flip the bird to the pigs and the system in general. Steve Jones' book 'lonely boy' is a great read and covers Brazil amd Biggs. Jones and Cook were the real talent behind the pistols. A lot of NY Dolls/Thunders influences, as he will say himself (Jones). Brings back memories of a more innocent time. Pogo on boys!
Fuckin brilliant ay and who ever thought that Ronni Biggs could sing well he sang for the greatesr band in the world the sex pistols respect Jake box 😊
Oh cmon john was the main man, I've seen them 6 times on reunion tours with a huge sex pistols collection, this post pistol project was fine but the band were no longer a working unit, great songs and lots of money made by virgin records,as many of the songs were huge hits, this was banned by BBC at the time .
God Bless The Sex Pistols...RONNIE BIGGS. RIP
Steve jones tone is pure gold!
Indeed!😎♠️

This song is so nice to listen to. Such a tuneful song! So catchy chorus to sing along with the song.
Always been a firm favourite of mine and God bless Ronald Biggs.
I went to primary school with Ronnie Biggs' son in Melbourne, Australia.......would have been around the time this came out (I'm 57).
Didn’t he play AFL for South Melbourne?
Me too
What about Liddle Towers? Ronnie Briggs
Apparently he was a very good footballer 👍👍 Played at a high level 👍
Stevie Jones spent his time
Nicking Bowie's gear
Now he's got himself a job
Blasting in my ear?
steve jones always seemed like a 40 something year old even in his 20s
god that was good
I wouldn’t let any geezer blast in my ear 💦 ewww. 🤭
great song and ronnie bigs on vocals great memories bought the single on picture sleeve way back in 78
Still got mine!
I have mine its a bit damaged but it still rocks
I remember buying it too absolutely great song bought the the great rock'n' swindle too what memories those were the days 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Punk A/F Biggs was..was a gentleman to boot. Can totally relate as I've still got warrants since 2013 myself ..RIP Sir! ✊

No one is innocent 🪶🦤
Superb this is rare.
I don't know why but this song hopped in my head and so I had to look for the video. So here I am. Cheers.
Same here it pops in my head every few months and I listen to it and feel like I'm 17 again for a few hours.
Jonesy at the Rio Carnival must have been like a kid in a candy shop
Biggs had a surprisingly good voice for a punk song.
Yeah, thought so myself.
And a surprisingly good voice for a Great Train Robber too!
That was the day I was born.
You've gotta hand it to Malcolm McLaren, he had some good marketing ideas.
Still fuckin love this tune 👌🏻
Classic , remember thos well on me uncles LP
best band ever
Part of my history. Made me think that anything was possible. now I'm the person I've always believed myself to be.
Thanks for putting this up
thanks you Ronnie RIP
Love it!! The first "Punk Rock" video!! Go Ronnie!! You rock!
What are you on about? It's punk...not punk rock...and how is it the first?
One of the Ronnie's children become a famous character in a brazilian children's tv show on the 80's called Balão Mágico (Magical Balloon) LOL.
Yes, I was living in Brazil that year when his kid was at the height of his fame as a pop and TV star.
What’s his name?

Ronnie Biggs is the maxime person!!!.
Yes is true, he was a thief but in the background he was not a bad person.
God take care of your soul...👍👍👍
Tell that to the people on the train they held up especially the man they coshed over the head... Wonderful person.

@@simonwoods8809 Biggs was only one of many car drivers they used to move the cash around, he wasn't even on the train ffs..Do some research
@@GrampaSpencersAmazingDentures he was stitched up as far as sentencing for the crime goes.
R.I.P. Ronnie Biggs!
Simplesmente hilário!
We luv you Ronnie
Did Ronnie Biggs ever do a song with a punk band ?
Fantastic
R.I.P. Ronnie.

Pity the vid' isn’t in synchronisation with the audio.
They should have continued without Rotten. Why not? Sad.
The black "US Tour Sex Pistols" shirt Paul Cook is wearing at 2:52 was sold at Juliens Auctions last year for about £35,000!!!
