The Reid brothers as captured by Kevin Cummins in Sept. 1989 in a London scrap yard as part of the NME cover session for the Jesus & Mary Chain before flying to the US to promote “Automatic”.
According to the Sept. 30th NME article, William Reid used to be  member of a pre-teenage East Kilbride gang called the Krazy Young Woodie who hang about the local Calderwood Shops scrounging money to buy bottles of Old English Sherry:
William: “Being a member of a gang was like being a member of a group, a bit of notoriety, though I wasn’t a member in the way you imagine, with knives or anything. It’s the best way to stay out of fights, you get the reflected glory and veil of dangerousness. Touring the world with your road crew is like being in a gang -but if you like Rice Crispies, it’s like getting Rice Crispies every night for dinner”.
Jim: “This was pre-teen punk days, this was ‘can you lend me two shillings & sipence, please?’ I remember when he was going through that phase, it was his ‘Clockwork Orange’ phase, but he couldn’t get to grips with the violence. The false eyelash kept falling off into his dinner. 
I was on of these guys whou could never get in a gang. I used to go down to the gang hut and they’d boot me in the bollocks and tell me to ‘Get to f---!”.
Two little boys had two little toys, one had a guitar the other had a gun...

The Jesus and Mary Chain - “Sometimes Always” feat. Hope Sandoval from the album Stoned & Dethroned (1994)
Probably the most accessible JaMC have ever been. No feedback, no distortion—just a straightforward pop song. A duet between Jim Reid and Mazzy Star’s Hope Sandoval, it is, even without the typical hallmarks of their sound, thoroughly JaMC and captures them at perhaps their most charming.
