O/T The Jim Jones Revue, 53 Degrees, Preston, Thursday 19th April 2012

Hello,

Second time for me seeing this English five-piece of guys who plainly love playing old-school rock'n'roll in the approved manner, i.e. loud, fast and with a smile!

They only play for 70 minutes but trust me when I say that they have fairly hammered their message home by then. I'm not sure that I could take too much more in any case, and I mean that in a benign way.

I had a quick word with a couple of the band afterwards and they appreciate the audience going bananas for them: all I could say was that it was the best £13 that I had spent in quite a while...

Towards the end they threw in a cover of "A Big Hunk O'Love" that threatened to take the roof off the joint! Just delirious stuff, hah-hah-hah!





















Cheers,

Simon.

Hi 68 to 72,

Too right! These guys aren't breaking any new ground but I love the racket that they put out there...





Cheers,

Simon.

Great band. Think Little Richard fronting the MC5.

Yeah these guys seriously rock. Check out High Horse and Dishonest John from the Jools Holland Show. First time i saw Jim Jones Revue and was blown away.
