JILTED JOHN

@thejiltedjohn

King of Wimp Rock. Dumped by Julie, laughed at by Gordon but I had a big hit single in 1978. I'm back again for a bit. Ere we go, 2, 3, 4 !

I’ve shared the story of how I came to design the Jilted John sleeves … how no-one has ever spotted the glaring mistake I made on the artwork … and how I twisted Martin Hannett’s melon: artofthenoise.substack.com/p/2-how-i-fram…

Too trendy for me, and after my time, obviously..

42 years ago today, the Hacienda Nightclub opened. Here’s some never-before-seen footage of inside the iconic club in its early days, filmed one Friday night in late 1983. youtu.be/oTNxf1rKqR0?si…

And Jilted John will be warming up for Rebellion on August 3rd! windmillbrixton.co.uk/events/2022-08…

I’ve been digitising old VHS videos, and unearthing some great stuff. But I didn’t expect to come across this classic from 1978. Previously unseen and now up on YouTube! youtu.be/pQix834md8c



Quite a bit about Jilted John in this interview..

I meant to tweet a link to this last month - an interview with the lovely Mark Crozer on kpiss fm. kpiss.fm/episode/april-…



Come and see my first gig in nearly 4 years! It’s on Wednesday August 3rd and a warmup for Rebellion on the 5th. Great support acts too. Tickets here: wegottickets.com/event/542529

I agree - it’s quite brilliant. Watch it!

@thejiltedjohn and @gdfellows You must see this wonderful cover version. It surpasses the epic grandeur of the original. youtube.com/watch?v=Y3bOEG…

Here's some record sleeves I designed back in the late 1970s. Joy Division, John Cooper Clarke, Jilted John, Slaughter and The Dogs, etc. Looking back, I realize that I was smack bang in the middle of a revolution … and I have to say, it was a load of fun! #joydivision #punk
