RFI: The Prisoners/Prime Movers etc.

Prisoners live gigs going on this weekend... (from their email)

This year marks the 40th anniversary of The Prisoners debut album 'A Taste of Pink'. Originally released on their own Own-Up Records and subsequently re-issued by Ace Records 20 years later, the anniversary provides an excuse to get back together and make their pioneering garage-psych-mod-rock noise in public for the first time in 20 years. The gigs will feature the original line-up of Allan Crockford (bass), Graham Day (vocals, guitar), James Taylor (Hammond organ) and Johnny Symons (drums).

The band are playing four gigs in their hometown of Rochester (UK) from Wednesday 30th November until Saturday 3rd December. Thursday, Friday and Saturday are already sold out, but there are still a handful of advance tickets available for the Wednesday gig here. There will be no tickets on the door!

If you can't get to any of these gigs, the final show on Saturday 3rd is being live-streamed on Vodle!!

Just got tickets to see the Prisoners at Camden Roundhouse next May.It occurs to me that a lot of the London venues where I used to watch them no longer exist - the Clarendon, Hammersmith, the Cricketers, Kennington, Sir George Robey, Finsbury Park.
