We were delighted to be joined by Primal Scream the evening before the release of Primal Scream ‘Give Out But Don’t Give Up: The Original Memphis Recordings’ as part of our National Album Day celebrations to discuss their memories of the recording sessions and why the original mix has never been released until now.

Teaming up with legendary producer Tom Dowd and the Muscle Shoals rhythm section of David Hood (bass) and Roger Hawkins (drums) at Ardent Studios in Memphis, the resulting recordings from those classic sessions showcase the more country soul, rock’n’roll side to a band who continue to surprise. It’s Primal Scream as you’ve never heard them before.
