LP "Ain' No Peril" is a thick, greasy slab Produced by John Getze and mastered by Grammy Award winner Randy Merrill, the resulting of Rama lama rhythm and blues that highlights some of Jones's most inspired songwriting ever and features guest appearances from vocal powerhouse Nikki Hill and Oxbow's Eugene S.

"When you're recording within spitting distance of the Mississippi River, there's something about that heavy Memphisair that changes the way that you hear the groove and grind," says Jim Jones. 'Ain't No Peril' captures that feeling and bathes in that magic."
