NEWSLETTER SEPTEMBER 2005

Hi There Folks,

Thanks for coming to visit me,I hope you enjoy what's here. The navigation has been made as easy as possible, thanks to Sarah at Artangle. So read on and have a good listen, the louder the better. Well it's been quite a few years now since I first heard the two tracks that shaped most of my music.'Great Balls of Fire' and 'Green Onions'.Two very different styles, but both electrifying. [excuse the pun].

It's probably an impossible task,but I've spent half my life trying to merge these two sounds. 'Burning Down' came close,and on my new instrumental album Tokyo Rocks; 'Camden Nights' and 'Salvador Dali' come fairly close as well. Lee Brilleaux once said to me "You're too clever for your own good John".Well I don't know about that....., but I have attempted on Tokyo Rocks to push my music to another level, but still keeping true to my roots.

When you push the boundries,and you feel you are succeeding,those original roots are still there waiting in the wings,you start to play,and you think"MMMMM", this music is still as great as it ever was.

So I suppose one side of me is looking for new directions, the other side is still the rockin' piano player that I've always been.Having said that,it's been suggested to me that 'Rockin the 88s' be re-released. So now I have secured the rights from Ace Records to re-release it on my website.The great axeman Gypie Mayo contributed on this record,as did Mike M.Take a listen to the two tracks on the samples page.                                       

The future-who knows, but coming together as I write is a new album'Oriole Express',named after Juppy's original band [The Orioles], which blew everyone away in the sixties. The Witham/Jupp magic reigned supreme. A bit like Berry and Lewis in the same band. What the tracks are, and who's playing on 'Oriole Express' will be announced soon.

Anyway Folks, Thanks for listening to my mad rantings about where I'm at. Please feel free to email me about anything at all, feedback is always very welcome, and I'll come back to you soon, I promise.

Regards John.
