Real name Wesley Harding Stace so he actually only stole the John. Had no idea this guy had this many albums or was still active, with an album
released just this year under his real name. No major success, so kudos for hanging in there. Another one I should have followed up on, but with
that many albums it's too late now, other than a compilation. This is his second album and a very good one, just missing the love mark. Here's
who all I heard while listening. Graham Parker, Robyn Hitchcock, Nick Lowe, Billy Bragg, Elvis Costello. The Costello makes sense, as we have
Bruce and Pete Thomas of the Attractions on here. John is an English dude but moved to the US in the 90's, to the Philadelphia area. Released an
album with the Decemberists in 2011. Was the first opening act that Bruce Sprinsteen had used in 20 years on his 1995 tour. He has also written
a few novels in between his music career. This album did not chart here and there was a single of The Devil In Me which only showed up on the
Modern Rock chart. Was hoping to find more tracks on youtube but it was not to be.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
