Live at Chelmsford Top Security Prison is a live album by the Sex Pistols, released in 1990. It was recorded on September 17, 1976 at the Chelmsford Maximum Security Prison, before Glen Matlock (opens in a new tab) left the band.
The recording featured many non-Sex Pistols overdubs and insertions arranged by the band's early soundman Dave Goodman (opens in a new tab). These included a canned audio track of a riot (complete with shouting, scuffles, breaking glass, etc.). As the liner notes on the Live at Chelmsford Top Security Prison CD say: "Their opening number was "Anarchy"... at the end of the number there was a barrage of catcalls, boos and screaming."
However, the same concert tracks were released (in original play order) on the "Sex Pistols: Alive" (opens in a new tab) CD without overdubs, contrasting with the Goodman-produced Chelmsford CD. The 1992 Dojo release DOJO CD 66 (opens in a new tab) also doesn't have the overdubs, but doesn't follow the original play order.
