Buy his stuff!
Cool, checking it out now then.
Sounds too much like TMBG......right down to the chord progression. He needs to buy another album besides "Lincoln"!
i love Jonathan, this is the Jawbone I'd been praying for! :)
excellent!!!
I got his CD before xmas...not easy to find in the UK. In fact, not available to buy in the UK! xxx
I'll grant DJ Hojo's point that this sounds a lot like TMBG, but that's one of the reasons I like it. In listening to the Thing a Week, I've discovered that Jonathan does indeed do more than just "Lincoln"-style covers. Drive and Flickr are great pieces that stand on their own.
Thanks for introducing me to Johnathan's music. I had no idea what I was missing!
bpende...I never said he was bad, just not original!
