For this week’s “120 Minutes” Rewind, we’re going to cheat slightly and turn to MTV Europe’s version of the show for this 1992 spotlight on The Jesus and Mary Chain circa Honey’s Dead. As you can see from the video below (via Mehr Licht!), the 7-minute reel features footage of brothers Jim and William Reid being interviewed (or, rather, Jim being interviewed while a sullen William looks on) mixed in with some live footage filmed in London that year.
Check it out:

Is this officially unreleased stuff or are you plundering the deluxe editions?
Nothing personal, I am just asking.
This is stuff I found on YouTube that was taped off television. In this case, MTV Europe’s “120 Minutes.”
