Jon Strong 'follow me' - what a great al***...

Couldnt agree more, I've had this for about 10 years. He still tours around the South York area from time to time too

One of my faves too.

Jon also has another album out called 'Honest Soldier'. It is also suberb but only available from Jon himself either at gigs or via his website which I can't remember the address of. He gigs less frequently nowadays, he no longer has a band, although he has done a couple of solo gigs. He plays The New Roscoe at Leeds a couple of times a year, I believe there is a link on their website to his website. A much underated performer, imho, also a great guy with a brilliant Yorkshire sense of humour, always has time to chat with his fans even a greasy old rocker like me!

I cand find the album that you refer to, I will be seeing hm live though.

Tickets - leeds

Anyone is Leeds area, this will be a great show.

Just EMailed Jon's website re availability and got the following response:

Excellent, thanks for that, will have a cheque in the post tomorrow.

What label is it on I wonder?

It's not on any label, it's a home made job recorded at Tube Studios in Leeds, I think he had a bit too much right hand down on the bass knob though! I will be at the next gig too, anybody know if he's got a band together yet or will he be solo? It's such a shame that Roy and Duncan left, they were electric together.

I'm pretty sure I've got something of JS' on Linn vinyl. Dunno if I've actually ever properly listened to it - must dig it out.
