This is the cover Jimmy Lea produced, and I’m certain he played all the instruments on the album too .

Re: The Mission singer annoys some Alice fans in Glasgow ...

From what I recall, all he said was something along the lines of "shame about the World Cup". I wouldn't say that was enough to tar a rather brilliant slot as support act. Really ? Is that it ?

The Mission singer annoys some Alice fans in Glasgow ...

I've read quite a few people on social media that Wayne Hussey from THE MISSION made a few ill-advised comments about football while supporting ALICE in Glasgow ....


I missed his comments , anyone on here have any idea what he said ?

My auld dad gave me his hand-me-down stereo unit which only played one Chanel and for years I thought elected was an instrumental apart from the speech section!

Re: HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRES TRACK LISTING REVEALED
