More Than Friends - Johnny Edson V, 2-CD Set with Favorites from the First Four

by Johnny Edson

SHORT CUTS
BY BILL BENTLEY

Johnny Edson, More Than Friends (Ragweed)

Johnny Edson was one of the lead singers in the late, lamented Uncle Uh Uh & the Uh Huhs, and for the past dozen years has been recording solo albums that are quirky in all the right places. They have a breezy rhythm, beautiful melodies and bountiful imagination, albums you can listen to in the foreground or the background, with lines like “I don’t care much for hip hop/and I don’t like rap at all/but I love the sound of your flip flops/slappin’ down the hall.”
Inspired by old-time swing music and new-time raconteurs like Dan Hicks & the Hot Licks, any band that covers “Wolverton Mountain” and writes originals in the same league is someone not to overlook. As a big time bonus, there’s a twenty-song second disc culled from Edson’s first four albums, showing how strong he’s always been.
