The Quireboys burned brightly in the late '80s and early '90s, before disappearing in a haze of smoke and whisky. Although since returned in various incarnations, the original line-up remains the most cherished, not just to the fans, but to frontman Spike and piano player Chris Johnstone. "We had the best time when me, Chris, Nigel, and Guy was together. The last time the four of us were together, it was just hysterical!", says Spike as we sit down for a chat. Reunited under the banner of Thirsty Quireboys, Spike and Chris have reworked Guy Bailey's Thirsty catalogue into something truly special in memory of the guitarist who passed away in 2023. We caught up with the pair to discuss the project, and the past. A bit of what you fancy; Eamon O'Neill
