You may know Johnny Favourite from the hit CD Holiday Romance that garnered a Juno award , a dozen East Coast Music Award nominations and a Gold album, countless television and media appearances. Mavericks guitar player Nick Kane Produced Holiday Romance along with Engineer Jeff Wolpert at the legendary Le Studio in Morin Heights. The international success of Holiday Romance allowed the band to tour non-stop for 5 years: from New Orleans, Louisiana to St. John's Newfoundland and from Los Angeles, California to Nassau, Bahamas,over 300 shows a year generating a hip and happening event at each and every venue. Selling out the world famous SUPPER CLUB in Manhattan repeatedly, and doing the same from the Roxy in Boston to the Derby in L.A. Having the word "swing" in one's moniker, however, became a dirty word in the fickle and cynical world of pop culture. After much heartache and reflection Johnny left the Orchestra determined to explore the possibilities of pop music from, as he says, "Tommy Dorsey to David Bowie, from Bobby Darin to Morrissey."
As everyone else says, this album is just wonderful from start to finish. My personal fav's are "Motorcycle" "We Still Talk" and "Bessie Smith". But, it's is REALLY true: there is not a bad song on the whole disc; not a very common feat where I come from. However, IMO, the Led Zeppelin song is the weakest one on the album (despite being an Zep fan myself); it's not bad; it just doesn't have as interesting an arrangement as the rest.
