THE VERVE

Nice set from 'Anon' over at the Voodoo Wagon this morning and a band you don't get so many ROIOs of these days. Verve were Wigan born in 1990 by lead vocalist Richard Ashcroft, guitarist Nick McCabe, bass guitarist Simon Jones and drummer Peter Salisbury. They survived the curse of writing an anthemic song 'Bitter Sweet Symphony' capturing the zeitgeist but managed to follow it up with a second totemic song with 'The Drugs Don't Work' . . . . . . .which they don't! They survived for nearly twenty years proving they were more than a one hit wonder and Richard Ashcroft remains a 'guru' figure for many
