the song: Universal Stranger, Mr Rock n Roll
Jon C Butler is a writer and singer from Leicester, England who first came
to attention with the classic album 'Shakespeare Alabama' by Diesel Park
West at the dawn of the nineties. With a particular awareness of the beauty
and richness of sixties American west coast rock n roll, the band were
responsible for a clutch of highly invigorating albums from 1989 to 2011.
The soul-searching resonance of the lyrics, also take us into familiar
territory for Jon - wrong turns and the passing of time. A deft reminder of
those infrequent moments when, just maybe, we should have let our emotional
walls come down and allowed our hearts to rule our heads.
"I tried to arrange 'Ghost in My Heart' in that mid seventies East Coast
style that welded uplifting vocal techniques to chiming guitars and driving
beats." says Jon Butler "To let the song sound clear but fearless and
combine timeless melodies with lovingly awkward twists and turns to keep
things interesting." 'Ghost in My Heart' does that and more. It also touches
on lost love, wrong turns, passing time and broken hearts. Oh to be alive!
