They were with McLaren at least until the band disentigrated at Winterland in SF in 1977. He went back to England and left the band without any money.
Sid was dead by 78 I think.
And the lawsuit was in the 1980s maybe into the 1990s.
After the band had secured ownership of their songs, they reunited 20 years after that last tour (in 1997). Paul Cook (who was in the band before Sid and played as a session member on the lone album) rejoined the band.
I didn’t know Paul Cook had ever left. I know Glen Matlock got booted because he wasn’t “punk” enough...”
All four of the original members were together for that tour in the ‘90s and they did a European summer festival tour together as recently as a couple of years ago.
