Where to start with this guy: the son of Bruce Richard Reynolds, mastermind of The Great Train Robbery; a member of one of the coolest bands in the world, Alabama 3 (famous for “Woke Up This Morning” - The Sopranos theme song); an artist and sculptor who specializes in death masks; and a former Royal Navy engineer who served during The Falklands War. Nick Reynolds’ life reads like a movie…from his early years on the run with his dad in South America, to teaching himself harmonica as he traveled the world, and making death masks for notable celebrities like Malcolm McLaren. We pepper his tale with some of the amazing music from his band and also posit an intriguing theory as to why there have been so many paedophile priests in Ireland.
