Iconic punk icon and master behind the Sex Pistols’ famous record covers and logo Jamie Reid, has passed away aged 76.
Reid created the artwork for a number of Sex Pistols hits in the 1970s, including God Save The Queen. His distinctive and edgy techniques became a trademark of the punk movement, and his designs became heavily associated with the Sex Pistols’ sound and style.
His son Rowan took to Instagram: “I lost the most important man in my life yesterday, to say I’m heartbroken is an understatement! Thank you so much Dad for everything you’ve taught me over the years, when ever I see a wildflower or a robin redbreast I’ll think of you and all the wonders you taught me about nature and our beautiful earth. I’ll miss you so much, always and forever! Until we meet again.“
