Jim Bob: Beach Ready, 10" Cherry Red Coloured Vinyl EP

• The second release in Cherry Red Records' 45s at 45 campaign is the ‘Beach Ready’ EP.

• Featuring four brilliant songs from Jim Bob.

• Pressed on Cherry Red coloured vinyl and strictly limited to 500 copies exclusively available from our website, Jim's ‘Beach Ready’ EP is released to celebrate Cherry Red Records 45th anniversary.

The lead track ‘Beach Ready Boys’ is about urban teenagers going to the seaside for the first time.
As Jim Bob says in the middle of the song “it isn’t just about vitamin D deficiency or not knowing what the bit between the land and the sky is called and It isn’t a local TV news piece about children who’ve never seen a chicken with a face before either. It’s about taking your shoes and socks off and running full pelt into the salty wind. With the sand between your toes, a smile on your face and not a care in the world”.

The other three songs are boss too. ‘Angela Hoards’, ‘Step Back (Take a Minute, Breathe)’ and ‘If God Was a CCTV Control Room Operator Called Steve’, which Jim Bob says is the best thing he’s ever recorded.
