Ash Brown - too morrissed

Anyway, way back in the cold, dark depths of February, Chiltern proggers Jump descended, with their freshly washed and powdered fans, upon The Limelight Theatre, in Aylesbury Home Of Prog, to record this, their second live album. We sent our raving reporter Ash Brown along, but she got so morrised that she forgot to write anything! I asked her if she remembered any of the gig, how the tracks were received and such, but she just giggled. No more gigs for her, back in the cupboard she goes to await a good spanking.

This live CD kicks off with crowd pleasing classic Dr Spin from their 2001 album On Impulse, a lively number on which it becomes apparent that this is a well recorded live album! This is swiftly followed by The Automated Modern Fool from their Faithful Faithless (see our review here) album. Reviewer Ash loved this track on the album and it has turned into a good live track. Another crowd pleaser comes up next in the form of Moscow Circus.

Young Holly Petrie - absent

So I reckon that, even if you're not a Jump fan yet this is as good a way to become one as any. Fans of the band will have this already, though, like me, they'll wish that they'd gotten young Hollie Petrie along that night to provide some backing vocals...

Now can we have our chickens back?

Jump have a few dates coming up - check their myspace page.
