True musicianship at it's finest. This band knows how to play extremely well, no false glitz or glamor... just fantastic music. Always puts a smile on the face of my wife and I. We saw them a few years ago at an outdoor music festival in Scotland (we live in Canada). Absolutely fantastic day!!!!
The smiths & James for me definitely two of Manchester’s best bands, The being so young writing so many classic songs in a 5yr period. James on the other hand have evolved, grown & improved over 40yrs giving a lifetime of great songs, live performances, pleasure & happiness and still doing it now successfully and well. One reason why I love my home city of Manchester where I’ve lived all my life for it’s great music culture & scene.
The world seems a better place when this group put out their combined energy - love the evolving lineup of members. The new music delivers 👌🏼❤️💗💜💙💚💛🧡🤎🖤🤍 they just keep on giving and giving....👏🏼
Tiresome to some which is their choice, right & feelings. To many others who appreciate music, talented entertaining musicians & performers who write nice, catchy songs and have done for over 40yrs now, which so many bands don’t get anywhere near still being together & playing so long. Yeh it’s not everyone’s bag which is cool by me cos music & life would be totally fuckin boring if we all liked the same things. I’d like to congratulate them on having such a long, entertaining, successful career and thank them for giving myself and no doubt so many others a life time of songs that I love that have influenced my own personal music career, songwriting,performing giving inspiration & songwriting tools to be creative writing songs with lots of emotion, feeling & power.
Wow, i mean WOW! These guys are at heights of their powers after (almost) 40 glorious years. The new album is simply stunning and full of energetic soulfull songs. The live renditions are simply out of this world! Can't wait for them to tour outside UK, greetings from Greece!
Absolutely fantastic. I love this version of Tomorrow. For a song that’s knocking on 30 year old this version sounds like it could be on the new album in my opinion.
Es una banda impresionante. Tantas excelentes canciones a lo largo de tantos años. Una maravillosa identidad musical que trasciende las décadas y se enriquece álbum tras álbum. Es un placer escuchar sus canciones. Y fue maravilloso cuando vinieron de gira a Argentina. Ojalá algún día regresen por aquí para verlos nuevamente en vivo.
Wow wow wow. James continue to put out brilliant music, and never disappoint. I'm amazed how great Tim sounds, Saul and Adrian are such talented players. Jim and David are tight as ever. Mark and Andy still bring it. Come back to Toronto please!
The consistency of this band is mind=blowing. A constant stream of amazing songs and albums. I've probably heard 10%. Beautiful Beaches is another instant classic. From today I am going to listen in full to every James album, even the ones I know well. I'm gonna give each one a whole week.
One of lifes very few active LEGENDS... Absolutely LOVE the new offerings! BRING IT ON JAMES... Thanks for being part of my life. As always Love you guys. Much love and appreciation ❤
Thank you for this fantastic live set! 👏Hope you'll be back in France soon for a tour or live on stage 🙏 Your new Lp is amazing 💖👍 since all these years you've always kept the flame alive ! ✨🍀LoveJames 💞📢🎸 🥁🎹🎻 🎺 🎤🎼🎶
I think this band is great. I think they are growing again. I know I’m a fan, when I assess their style, vocals, delivery, chemistry, musicianship. This band could be a top band of all time.
They sound better now than they have in years. I love James and have done so for 30+ years but why is it that only Tim looks like he’s enjoying himself? The others look either sad or just engrossed in their instruments. They need to smile more! Say Something was superb!!
