5.0 out of 5 stars "Rip it up and start again..." (amended), 9 Jan 2009
"Rock n Roll is dead" is an oft used diatribe - the ultimate in nihilistic reproach when the mutterer suspects that they just weren't made for these times. Jim Morrison was yelling it at arena audiences back in '68 and the idea wasn't lost on Elvis fans a decade earlier as he shouldered his kit bag up the gangplank en route to Der Fatherland. You only have to glance at the covers of the music `glossies' with the same old tired stories of how Zeppelin tamed America, of Rick Rubins' Johnny Cash resurrection and yet another account of the Beatles White Album sessions. Pop may well eat itself but It appears that rock forgets, remembers and reassess itself - every month!! The Hold Steady? Pick a window - you're leaving. No sir, I was not made for these times.
But just as the natural order of things supply the human race with nurses, soldiers and criminals, every generation defaults to a glimmer of hope. From an era which considers Coldplay important and Madonna a feminist icon cometh The Jim Jones Revue.
Not to be confused with the religious idiot who preached Kool-Aid and suicide this Jim Jones - an epiphany of velvet waistcoats, sideburns and great shoes - wouldn't be out of place in a Tombstone gin joint. If Poe had a band The Jim Jones Revue would be it. London's music tableau is in a state of flux at the moment where the best of old school traditional forms appear to be melding with the fire of punk to create an exciting hybrid which is rocking clubs from Euston to Houston. `The Revue' are a primary mover in this `secret revolution' and thirty seconds into their self-titled debut album you'll be all wised up and killing for tickets.
Recorded live onto a four track Tascam their opening volley is a crash-course in anti-production and probably the best British debut since The Who's My Generation. Searing vocals, torrid guitar runs and cut-throat piano have been jammed into a meat grinder and have come out the other end sounding like Little Richard's voice. In fact a cover of Richard's Hey Hey Hey is a welcome nod to what is clearly a starting point and new single Rock n Roll Psychosis is at once a standout and outstanding.
Ultimately The Jim Jones Revue is just that - a review and a `bringing it all back home' endeavour referencing Jerry Lee's 50's blueprint and employing the crash-clatter chaos of The Cramps, MC5 and The Birthday Party.
The only gnat in the Brylcreem is that they're nearly upstaged by their own opener. Princess & the Frog (almost certainly a re-imagining of Bunker Hill's Red Riding Hood & the Wolf) raises the bar so high that it takes another couple of listens to realise the rest of the album more than lives up to it.
Rock n roll is dead? Sometimes - but not today. Renew my subscription to the resurrection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not to be missed, 17 Feb 2009
By Stephen Milligen "everythingdie68" (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Jim Jones has been around in the music business for years in Thee Hypnotics and Black Moses, but nothing matches up to this album. You could be forgiven for thinking that he has managed to get Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis to appear as guests with some frantic piano playing, but the disc is packed with great songs. Fantastic rock'n'roll album that you will enjoy listening to many times, i'm looking forward to the next one already.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, 9 Feb 2009
By A. Hall "Fcomm97" (Dorset, UK) - See all my reviews

Wow, what a fantastic album. Only heard of Jim Jones Revue from hearing Gideon Coe on 6 Music play 'Rock 'n' Roll Psychosis' one night and i was hooked. That track and listening to the album is excellent, unrelenting, pounding rock 'n' roll. The howling vocals, the bashing keyboards and that low fi, slightly distorted production lends itself to authenticity. Hearing an interview with Jim (previous James when he was in Thee Hypnotics) with Mark Reilly on 6 Music in session he said that he is influenced by 50's r'n'r and wanted to create the sound of a deep, screaming black vocal like Little Richard and he manages to do it. Litle Richard, meet Reverend Horton Heat via Jon Spencer/ Boss Hog. This is my album of the year.
