The Jesus and Mary Chain

Book is great

3 stars because the quality of paper is very bad, cheap material. Good pictures, but only a couple from PsychoCandy era.

I was ready to snap this baby up immediately but then noticed it to be only 118 pages.Don't know if that's a misprint but 118 pages isn't a proper book.That's a pamphlet my friend.

Some wonderful B/W photography in here chronicling the early days of the band, my favourite being a two page spread of the four boys in their studio. Just to see WR with either his hollowbody Gretsch or Gibson makes it all worth it. Jim's written an amusing commentary of remembrances and there are some lyrics to round it out. For the fans for sure.
