jimmy ray rocked. he should've been heeowge over here but he was too clever/ironic/surreal for the mainstream to cope with. after 'going to vegas' inexplicably bombed over here, he buggered off to the states, where he became some kind of cult-ish icon for about 15 minutes. i hope he is alive and well.

I agree - Are You Jimmy Ray was his apex. I interviewed JR once at a Smash Hits tour just after the song came out. Already a fan, I put it to him that the song was about paranoia and drugs ("Who wants to know?" "With a reefer/Aretha I'm a believer", etc). He gave me a wry smile before lamely denying it all. I wept into my cornflakes when the follow-up stiffed.

Do we have a location for his random dancing twins? They were a little but Funhouse, which may have contributed to his downfall due to unfortunate Pat Sharp associations.
