  11. #NowPlaying #FalsettoFriday

    Junkie #falsetto? I say unequivocally this is a thing (plus, there's medical research: sciencedirect.com/science/arti).

    Examples include #KeithRichards in the #RollingStones' "Coming Down Again", or #DaveKusworth's work with #NikkiSudden in #TheJacobites . . . or better still, those solo acoustic turns by #JohnnyThunders. For a while Johnny's voice got so jaundiced and gossamer-thin, you'd think his vocal folds had been replaced by corn husks! But it's what he left us, utterly affective, part and parcel to his essential beauty. Miss him.

  13. JOHNNY THUNDERS
    Que Sera, Sera
    1985 UK pressing

    Been a while for this one.

    Not a GREAT album, but not a bad one either. It’s nowhere on the level of his old band New York Dolls, but it’s worth re-visiting.

    Thunders used a reggae band (The Black Cats) for this, which is odd, because there’s not really a reggae vibe to be found until the last song on the first side, “Cool Operator”.

    There’s some classic sounding Thunders here, though, particularly on “A Little Bit Of Whore”, and there’s some backing vocals on the album closer “Endless Party” by Stiv Bators of The Dead Boys.
