In 1997, Immaculate Fools broke up after Kevin Weatherill departed from the group. Calling himself Dirty Ray, Weatherill abandoned the Immaculate Fools' Celtic touches for gritty blues on his solo debut Primitive. Influenced by John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf, Tom Waits, and Nick Cave, Weatherill recorded the album with Simon Anderson (percussion) and Rainy Moor (electric organ). <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Dirty+Ray">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
