Epic story of the Scottish rabble-rousers! Or was it merely the drink? 

First edition hardcover!

+++++++++++++

William and Jim Reid, brothers and founding members of The Jesus and Mary Chain—a band that bridged the gap between the punk explosion and the emergence of grunge and Britpop—chronicle the chaos, confusion, and stories behind their music.

For five years after they’d swapped sought-after apprenticeships for life on the dole, brothers William and Jim Reid sat up till the early hours in the front room of their parents’ East Kilbride council house, plotting their path to world domination over endless cups of tea, with the music turned down low so as not to wake their sleeping sister. They knew they couldn’t play in the same band because they’d argue too much, so they’d describe their dream ensembles to each other until finally they realized that these two perfect bands were actually the same band. The name of that band was The Jesus and Mary Chain.

The rest was not silence, and picking up those conversations again more than forty years later, William and Jim tell the full story of one of Britain’s greatest guitar bands for the very first time – a wildly funny and improbably moving chronicle of brotherly strife, feedback, riots, drug and alcohol addiction, eternal outsiders and extreme shyness, that also somehow manages to be a love letter to the Scottish working-class family.

Good for sensitive skin, zero fragrance, leaves skin soft and moisturized!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I got this to go along with my Vanicream sensitive skin cleanser, and I'm very happy with it! It is a little more liquidy than cream-like, but it absorbs into skin well and leaves it feeling soft and moisturized. Great for sensitive skin and completely free of fragrance, with a shorter ingredient list that gives me more peace of mind. Very pleased with this, try it!

Great Value for a Good Moisturizer (5- Stars)
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This moisturizer contains nothing fancy — and that’s the whole point. The ingredients are few but effective, with several ceramides and hyaluronic acid for deep and long-lasting hydration. Best of all, it contains no silicones or parabens. Because it’s noncomedogenic, it doesn’t cause breakouts from clogged pores. Since I have sensitive skin, all of the above are critical for my skin care routine. It’s about as simple and as effective as a cream can get. Because of that, it doesn’t contains any sunscreen, retinol, or other anti-wrinkle components.

Excellent facial moisturizer
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Very gentle, lightweight, absorbs well without feeling greasy or heavy. Perfect to use after Fraxel laser treatment. I also like it is fragrance free and really good on sensitive skin.

Highly recommend! But still irritates sensitive skin
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Exceeded my expectations! Lightweight, yet has a bit of occlusiveness (which I needed)! Hydrates my skin really well! Like the subtle smell of it also! It tried other popular ones (with almost no occlusive components) as La roche and ordinry, but they were too dry for me. I needed the moisture to be locked in plus restore my skin barrier also. So so far vanicream was so good! My skin type: dry, sensitive, highly irritating. Ps I would have to try another brand after finishing this one. Irritates my skin. It’s not for sensitive skin, unfortunately

Inexpensive and Effective
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve struggled with dry sensitive skin and eczema my entire life and this is now my ride or die facial moisturizer. It’s so much less expensive than luxury brands that I have tried and works better. It absorbs so well, leaves no residue, and a small amount goes a long way. I will say, if you have an active eczema flare it can sting a tiiiiny bit but that’s an eczema thing. It causes zero irritation or inflammation there’s just some sensation as it goes on. Vanicream as a brand in general is soooo eczema friendly. Life changing.
