One of the few pleasures left living in an area such as Ladbroke grove is that every so often a known (to some anyway) musician is seen around the area for some reason or other, having a few recording studios and record labels based in the area helps. Ive seen and met the likes of your JELLO BIAFRA's, occasonal SEX PISTOLS, Damned and CLAS's to name a few. This time it was a SEX PISTOL that I bumped into today as I was off to the shops this morning.
The PISTOL in question was Glen Matlock, he of the PISTOLS and RICH KIDS, asking him about the fairly recent RICH KIDS one-off reform gig I discovered that ill guitarist STEVE NEW had recently lost his struggle and shuffled of his mortal coil a couple of months ago.
He was a good guitarist as well as being comparitably young, sadly, he joins a frighteningly growing list of celestial Harp strummers and Percussionists who have recently also gone to join the Heavenly band list.
R.I.P STEVE NEW.
Heres our attempt at a tribute, its the RICH KIDS debut single 'Rich kids'.
