Jim Jones Revue - Princess And The Frog


The Jim Jones Revue, a English explosive rock'n'roll band. Jim Jones has been a part of some amazing bands (Thee Hypnotics & Black Moses) and The Revue is yet another one. It’s different stylistically but energy-wise it’s much like Thee Hypnotics “Liv’r Than God”. The Jim Jones Revue have been described as sounding like a car crash between Little Richard and The MC5. Their debut was recorded live on four track in 48 hours. The 10-track set is an album full of riffs you’ve probably heard before, with traditional Rock-n-Roll themes, dirty blues ass-shakin' boogie and it's Loud, the album is full of influences like Jerry Lee, The Sonics, MC5 and Elvis. The album is great played with well written songs mastered by a bunch of crazy guys!

The guys are out on a maniac tour at the moment, see tour dates below.



Todays tune "Princess and The Frog” The track kicks off with the distorted broken down honky tonk piano of Elliot Mortimer before the rest of the band crashes in like a dynamite. Enjoy!
