Twenty long hours, my eyes are sore

Thursday music corner: The London band Jim Jones All Stars formed in 2020 including three members of the former Jim Jones Revue band, which released four albums from 2008 to 2014. The All Stars' website describes them as 'A bubbling swamp curse of unholy rhythm', and Louder Than War described them as 'a thick slice of greasy R’n’B fueled by grinding rhythms and rude horns'.

It's Your Voodoo Working was released in October 2022 featuring guest vocalist Nikki Hill, and presages the All Stars' first album. Ain't No Peril was recorded in Memphis and will be released on 29 September. The release will be followed by a 15-date UK tour culminating at the 100 Club (100 Oxford St, London) on 10 November.
