SynopsisJames have been a bizarre, quixotic feature on the British musical landscape for over 15 years. The band fell together in their native Manchester in the mid-eighties and quickly became one of the leading lights of the British music scene. As the nineties developed, James penetrated the mainstream and became consistent chart-toppers while never losing the credibility earned by the quizzical intensity of their talismanic singer Tim Booth. James have now been a totem for two generations of alternative music fans, and they have entered the new millennium with their fire burning as brightly as ever.
