The Rock
Explosion - 2004 -
To tell you the
truth, when that crazy creature named Bruno told me that we might have
the chance to interview Clive Jones, the first thing I thought was:
impossible! This should be a joke! The hoax of the millennium! But I was
wrong, and when I realised that it was the truth, I felt happy like a
baby! Clive has been the flute player in the mythical British band Black
Widow, authors of the ‘dark-prog’ master piece
"Sacrifice". While Black Sabbath preferred a much more
aggressive and violent sound, Black Widow could count on their ethereal
and evocative atmosphere, pure black magic! Besides, Clive has been the
founder and leader of another great band every shock rock supporter
should know: Agony Bag. A high transgression lover band with a very
original sound, a kind of ‘punk-glam’ with theatrical hints, the
pioneers of the nowadays shock rock bands. Agony Bag's shows were unique
experiences, which reminded me of the musical "Rocky Horror Picture
Show", based on gloomy make up, sex and blood. Clive Jones can be
surely considered a rock living legend, but despite this, he's been kind
and precise in answering each one of our questions. And this lead me to
think to all those egocentric and unkind rockstars who think to be the
ones and only… With this milestone interview we're pleased to greet
you and wish to all of you happy holidays, full of old, great, and funny
‘rock'n'roll’!

I chatted with
Clive Jones yesterday, he's an awesome dude! There is currently much
‘stuff’ in the works from him.A Black Widow Musical is coming our
way...and as for Agony Bag, this is one of the most bizarre and obscure
outfits in rock music. One of the first real crossover bands that
combined punk, glamrock, heavyrock and progressive rock without
difficulties, Clive writes catchy, memorable songs that will stick to
your mind forever. One of my Top 100 records actually...."I
can" is my ‘fav’ song, so hopeful!
