The Jim Jones Revue ST LP Vinyl / MC5 Little Richard Thee Hypnotics
Debut album on the Punk Rock Blues Records label, PRBLP002. LP vinyl is in excellent condition ++, Sleeve is very good over all, no splits but theres some slight edge wear and have highlighted the worst area in photo 2. Its really not too bad and can prob be gone over in black to cover up. Over all a nice copy of this rare album. …. The Jim Jones Revue eponymous debut album is described as sounding like a car crash between Little Richard and The MC5, The ‘Revue play supercharged rock’n’roll inspired by The Killer, The Georgia Peach and of course The Memphis Flash and the deranged sons of Detroit. The Jim Jones Revue strip rock’n’roll back to its essential elements and this album is a document of their base alchemy. Recorded live (no overdubs!) on four track in one straight 48 hour session the record is a celebration of no holds barred full on rocking. Former lead singer of Sub Pop garage legends Thee Hypnotics, Jim Jones looks after vocals and guitar, Rupert Orton plays lead guitar, Elliot Mortimer plays keys, Gavin Jay plays bass and Nick Jones plays drums. Among an album of hard rocking delights, key tracks to dip into are “Rock’n’Roll Psychosis” which sounds like a unholy jam between Jerry Lee Lewis and The Birthday Party. The ‘Revue then pay homage to The Killer on another key track “Meat Man”. JJR piano player Elliot Mortimer adds his psychotic interpretation of boogie woogie to Jim Jones’s leery vocal to create a pornographic maelstrom. More carnal bump and grind with “Cement Mixer” the final track of the album. For this The ‘Revue step back in speed but increase the power with Mortimer unleashing a hurricane of Hammond keys while Jones intones “Here we go, nice and slow........” A soundtrack for a filthy liaison in a Latin seaport when your boat has already left.......
