Jane’s Addiction

In 1991, Jane's Addiction was riding high on the waves of their groundbreaking second album 'Nothing's Shocking,' which had been released in 1988. This live concert at the legendary Marquee Club in London captures the band at a pivotal moment, just before the release of their third album, 'Ritual de lo Habitual,' which would drop later that year. Their raw energy and experimental sound, blending punk, metal, and alternative rock, were hugely influential, setting the stage for the grunge explosion that followed. The Marquee show exemplifies their electric live performances, which were instrumental in building their cult following. Interestingly enough, the band was known for their theatrical stage presence, often featuring striking imagery that reinforced their reputation as pioneers of alternative rock. This recording is a snapshot of an unforgettable chapter in music history, showcasing Jane's Addiction in their prime, and truly underscores why they’re often hailed as one of the best live acts ever.
