James Ray is a rock singer and band-leader, best known as a member of Andrew Eldritch's side-project The Sisterhood and for his own band James Ray's Gangwar. He was also a founding member of James Ray and The Performance, The MK Ultra, James Ray & The Longfolk, 4080peru and Black Hearted Riders ==James Ray and The Performance== The Performance was founded by James Ray and Carl Harrison. An early demo of the tracks "Mexico Sundown Blues", "Dance" and "Edie Sedgwick" (the latter named after the actress) was sent to The Sisters of Mercy's record label, Merciful Release. Additional demos from the time included a cover of Recoil's "Faith Healer" song and a track entitled "PBR Streetgang", recorded in Hamburg, in which the vocals were almost entirely soundbytes from the film "Apocalypse Now", including the song's title. The band were signed, and after Ray's contribution to The Sisterhood project ''Gift'', the label released the single "Mexico Sundown Blues" in July 1986. Merciful Release subsequently released the singles "Texas" and "Dust Boat", followed by the compilation album ''A New Kind of Assassin''. Although the band had recorded a song with the same title, it was not featured on the album, although it did appear on ''Gothic Rock'' compilations. The band's final line up included James Ray, Carl Harrison and Richard Harvey for the single release "Dust Boat", which included "A New Kind of Assassin" as its B-side. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Ray (rock musician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
