Never Stop (Live Version) is the soundtrack promotional video for 'Jim' by Josephine Halbert, who produced and directed the video. The video, produced in 2016, included footage of the original recording of the live, acoustic version of the song Never Stop, written and performed by singer/songwriter Jonty Balls of the rock band Desert Mountain Tribe. It is a classic love song that filmmaker Josephine commissioned for her play and the brief was to create a timeless song that play's fictional main character, Jim, a musician, writes for the story's heroine. The video also included dramatised scenes inspired by the sotry of Jim featuring the actors Charlotte Quita Jones and Cesare Taurasi who play the main roles in the audio drama.
The play, Jim, tells the story of a rock and roll romance, set against the backdrop of the psychedelic scene in 1968 between a well known American musician and an aspiring young English writer. Jim is the 'muse's story, narrated by the story's heroine, Laura, and we follow their relationship over a series of her memories of their meetings in California, London and Copenhagen when Jim is on a summer European tour with his band at the height of their fame. It is a story about the mystery and adventure of being young and falling in love and how the experience of such an emotional awakening can never leave us where they find us.
