I'm 62 years old. I completely missed this band in the late 80s and early 90s. I'm glad I " discovered" them in 2024. They are sensational!!

Just saw them in Montreal, first time I have ever seen them. Unbelievable live! I’m now a fan !

Still vital, still fantastic, still James.

I'll always be grateful to Tim, I took my then girlfriend to see James in Newcastle about 28 years ago... He came out into a packed audience and actually sang to my girlfriend for a minute or two. It absolutely made her night, and possibly year. What an amazing front man, and an amazing live band.
