Biography:
The Members were formed in 1977 by Nicky Tesco. Tesco was a graduate who, having failed to emigrate to Canada, had returned to Camberley, Surrey, UK, and had been working in a variety of jobs when the opportunity arose to form a band. Linking up with a friend and local guitarist Gary Baker an initial four piece was formed. Tesco soon added trainee merchant banker Jean Marie Carroll, known as JC, to the lineup having been a long admirer of his style and songwriting abilities.

SOLITARY CONFINEMENT (The Members)
INTRO: Asus4 A E x4
A
You are living in the suburbs,
And you have problems with your parents,
So you move on up to london town,
Where you think verythings happening, going down.
CHORUS:
F# A
Living in a bedsit,
Travelling on a tube train,
D C# B
Working all day long.
D C# B
And you know no one,
So you don't go out,
And you eat out of tins,
E (stop)
And you watch television……….Solitary confinement.
ALL IN: A (with lead)
A
I have got a good job,
And i am working in the city,
Get the tube train at 8 o'clock and 5,
And a really don't know if i'm dead or alive.
REPEAT CHORUS:
SPOKEN VERSE
A
Well I was living in Camberly, and, you know, I thought I'd move up to London,
Life would be very exiting for me, ‘cos I’d go out at night and meet girls and things,
but nothing ever happened round my neck of the woods,
except for this rather nice girl across the way from me,
I got it sussed, she got a 40 inch bust, and she's just...just like!
REPEAT CHORUS:
A D
Solitary confinement…….You're so lonely,
Solitary confinement…….You're so lonely,
A
Solitary confinement. We’re The SKONES going to tell you what it's like to be...
A B
On your own By yourself x2 on your own By yourself x2
By yourself, By yourself x2 By yourself By yourself x2
B (stop) D (stop) A (stop)
