The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion (Tues 6th)

Mar 7, 2012

Posted by Adam Peters

For more than twenty years, without a change in line-up, this trio have been ploughing their musical furrow: beloved of hacks and musicians, but never quite crossing over into the mainstream. Even when Jack and Meg White hit paydirt with their punky garage blues concoction, the band who wrote the recipe remained at the margins. A crying shame, as the sheer noisy enthusiasm on offer tonight demonstrates. JSBX are the warm crackly vinyl that fathered your antiseptic White Stripes CDs.

Adam Peters started out publishing football fanzines in the late 80s. Various jobs on video games magazines and a brief dalliance scripting photo love stories for the teen press followed. Switching media to television, he co-wrote David Walliams' first sitcom, was somehow once BAFTA-nominated and now concentrates on pre-school animation series. Coming full circle, in 2013 he launched a roller derby fanzine.
