The Jim Jones Revue

Produced in 2007 by Jim Jones (formerly of psych-rockers Thee Hypnotics and Dark Moses) and Rupert Orton (golf club promoter and brother of nu-folker Beth), the Jim Jones Revue’s raucous piano-driven sound infused the sound, spirit, and design of ’50s rock and roll & roll using a wall structure of blistering garage area rock and roll. The Jim Jones Revue — Gavin Jay, Nick Jones, Henri Herbert, Jones, and Orton — released their self-titled debut long-player in 2008. This slab of pounding rock and roll & move exuberance was documented in only 48 hours and was carefully followed another year with a singles compilation, Right here to save lots of Your Soul. Right now the music group were a genuine draw over the live circuit; their displays were intense and incredibly, very noisy. Their second record, Burning Down YOUR HOME, which surfaced this year 2010, was made by Poor Seed Jim Sclavunos. As the record still captured the fact and selling point of the Revue’s riotous live shows, as was the case using their debut, the audio over the follow-up was entirely very much cleaner. This continuing on 2012’s even more expansive Savage Center, that was also made by Sclavunos and highlighted a grungy, Orbison-esque ballad “Midnight Oceans as well as the Savage Center” among the high-octane rockers. After seven years and three albums, the Jim Jones Revue announced their purpose to disband in 2014, however, not before introducing their swaggering rock and roll & roll present for your final time on the farewell tour, THE FINAL Hurrah.
