| In 1977 the year of dole queue
rock it was one in the eye for the purists to name your band the -
Rich Kids. Add to that the founder was one Glen Matlock
allegedly at the time ousted from the Sex Pistols for liking the
Beatles. Add to that singer
Guitarist Midge Ure from pretty boy band Slik, a gammy image of fun, a sound
influenced by the Small Faces and songs that were full of twists and
turns and hooks that were more than yer standard punk ramalama and
you had a band that split audiences and critics alike.
One album and 3 singles was it
before the band went their separate ways. |
