LISTENING TO...

Johnny G Lyon band. Great musician from Tampa Bay. First saw him at the State
Fair in 1988 or `89. Seen him a few times over the years since then. Has one of the greatest
unknown singles that should have been released nationally, 'Call Me Lover Boy'. What a groove, it really rocks. A couple of years ago I was able to talk to Johnny after a show in Brandon.
Really nice guy, autographed my copy of his cd "Give The Kid A Chance", and a gave me a special discount card for his niteclub/restaurant over in Tampa. Never got there (yet), though still hope to someday.
But it's the thought that counts, and JGL is a great guy, and his band does a killer live show.
So if you're ever visiting Tampa, try to catch a show...
