Hell's Angels: Primal Scream
Tim Tooher, MOJO, April 1994
Last year Primal Scream's pilgrimage to the holiest sources of the Devil's music brought them to Memphis, where they recorded their newest album Give Out But Don't Give Up, a potent brew of deep funk grooves and white boy rock'n'roll. Here Tim Tooher: the band's "spiritual advisor", tells the ten-year-story.
