Biografia:
Em 1983, Jim e William resolveram gravar uma demo com duas músicas e em 1984 convidaram o baixista Douglas Hart e o baterista Murray Dalglish para montarem um grupo. Nascia assim o The Jesus and Mary Chain, nome provavelmente tirado de um antigo filme de Bing Crosby, versão jamais confirmada pelos irmãos Reid.
Uma cópia dessas demos acabou chegando até Alan McGee, que estava montando a Creation. Jim se lembra do primeiro contato com Alan: "é uma estória bizarra.

Date: Mon, 2 Oct 1995 16:50:11 -0400 (EDT)
April Skies
by the Jesus and Mary Chain, from the album Darklands
tuning: all strings 1/2 step down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)
chords and lyrics transcribed by John Spencer
(This is an old favourite -- always amazes me what
they do with just three chords. I find they mostly
strum the bass portions of chords, then sometimes
play the entire chord -- see what works for you.)
E EEE A
Hey honey whatcha trying to say
AAA B
As I stand here don't you walk away
A E
And the world comes tumbling down
EEE A
Hand in hand in a violent life
AAA B
Making love on the edge of a knife
A E
And the world comes tumbling down
A
And it's hard for me to say
E
And it's hard for me to stay
A
I'm going down to be by myself
E
I'm going back for the good of my health
B
And there's one thing I couldn't do
A
Sacrifice myself to you
E
Sacrifice
(solo)
E A E A B A E
E
Hey baby I just can't see
A
Just what you mean to me
E
I take my hand and I fake my words
A
I'm just your long-time curse
B A
And if you walk away I can't take it
E
But that's the way that you are
A
And that's the things that you say
E
And now you've gone too far
A
With all things you say
B
Get back to where you come from
A
I can't help it
E
Under the April skies
A
Under the April sky
E
Under the April sun
A
Under the April sky
E
ooh-ooh-oooh
A
ooh-ooh-oooh
E
ooh-ooh-oooh
A
ooh-ooh-oooh
E
Under the April sun
A
Under the April sun
E
Under the April sky
A
Under the April sun
E A
Under the April sky
E
Sun grows cold, sky gets black
A
And you broke me up and now you won't come back
E
Shaking hand, life is dead
A
And a broken heart and a screaming head
E
Hey hey
A
Under the April skies
E
Under the April sun
A B A
Under the April sky
E
Under the April sky
