RIP Nick Tesco
We are devastated to announce that Nick Tesco, founder member and original lead vocalist of the Camberley punk reggae legends The Members has died after a short illness at the age of 67 in London. Although his health had not been good for a while (he had not performed regularly since 2008) Nick was a fiery commentator on social media and a great writer, broadcaster and journalist.
This was the band that opened punk to me in 1979 with The Sound Of The Suburbs and made me love them through all incarnations to who The Members are today.
I read Steve Jones' book and he said when the members won the court case against McClaren, Rotten, Jones and Cook received 25% each and Matlock and Sids mum got 12.5% each.I wonder who bought this and who owned it. Sid had no siblings and his mother is long dead and his father abandoned him never to be seen again . I believe his cousin gets all the royalties.
