Bang!

Bang! is a Spanish independent record label based in Santurtzi, Spain. Established in 1997/1998, it has been founded and managed by two talented individuals. The label is known for its dedication to promoting unique and diverse music from various genres. With the support of Munsterama, Bang! has successfully marketed and distributed numerous albums by *artists* who have gained recognition for their exceptional talent and creativity.

The Jacobites, formed in 1982, were a British band consisting of Nikki Sudden, Dave Kusworth, Epic Soundtracks, and Mark Lemon. They played their first gig at the Royal George on May 21, 1982 and continued to perform until January 2, 1986. After disbanding in 1988, Nikki Sudden and Dave Kusworth reunited under the name Jacobites in 1993 when Mammoth Records re-released their first two albums on CD for the U.S. market. The band continued recording music until Nikki Sudden's untimely death in 2006.

With a sound that blended elements of rock and folk music, The Jacobites drew inspiration from artists such as Alastair McDonald, The McCalmans, Gaberlunzie, Ewan MacColl and Archie Fisher. Their unique style resonated with fans who appreciated their heartfelt lyrics and melodic compositions.

Despite facing challenges along their musical journey, The Jacobites remained dedicated to creating meaningful music that touched the hearts of listeners. Their legacy lives on through their recorded works which continue to captivate audiences today.

For the first time on vinyl, this record from 1993 is now being presented on deluxe version. This album exposes Jacobites at their purest essence with full band and high quality studio recordings, with the band delivering their top performance. 

An absolute must for all Nikki Sudden and Dave Kusworth fans. The International critical acclaim received on Nikki Sudden ́s last two albums and with Dave Kusworth ́s career will certainly help provide new fans for this great long-lost album.
