Handsome John Reddington.
He was in the original line up as one of the main songwriters playing guitar.
He's been in and out of the group for years but now back in and is now playing sax. The original sax player was his cousin Alan.
One of my best memories was watching them at the Lyceum when they came from above the lighting rigs suspended on wires gradually floating down to the stage while doing the guitar duets on Gather Your Limbs.

Yes Maggot, last I heard he's now living in Canada.
Scozza won't like them because they can't sing
Edit
Just found the line up for that Lyceum gig

It includes the Pogues then known as the Pogue Mahones, I don't remember them maybe I was in the bar?
Do you like the singing of Shane MacGowan Scoz

Once read a piece by Steve Tyler
When I die I want my ashes scattered on Venice beach so I can still get into beach babes knickers
Made me laugh a the time

how that guy is still alive after what he put through his body in the 70's and 80's is beyond me...
he and Joe Perry must've kept the Columbian 'economy' alive by themselves
