So, where to attach them to? The answer of course is the nipples, always the nipples.

Wait, just what the hell are we talking about here? Well, obviously the topic for discussion is exactly where on the cadaver of rock n’ roll you’d place the electrodes if you wanted to shock it back to life again.

If the heart of the thing is still beating – just – then you’d still have volunteers charging up the battery.

One of those parties would undoubtedly be the combined personnel of The Jim Jones All Stars, or definitely at least frontman Jim Jones, for whom keeping the spirit of the music in its purest/impurest sense has been a personal mission going back more than thirty years.

Jones was originally frontman of Thee Hypnotics, a band who surfed through the UK’s brief garage rock revival during the early nineties; Jones would start fronting his own outfits after they folded, with the mission he accepted then more or less the same ever since.

Following the demise of Jim Jones & The Righteous Mind, The Jim Jones All Stars picked up the mantle with 2023’s Ain’t No Peril, then slipped out a document of their infamously intense live performances in Get Down – Get With It last year.

Produced by The Black Crowes’ Chris Robinson and with a further guest appearance from Chuck Prophet, Cat Fight’s mere presence suggests that there’s plenty of mic stand grabbing life left in this thing yet.
