- Details
- Genre: Folk
- Description: 'Start strong, stay strong' could be the summary of British-born folk/rock songwriter and performer John Wesley Harding's ongoing career arc. His very first album, 1989's 'It Happened One Night,' was recognized as 'remarkable' (Creem); his latest CD, 2004's 'Adam's Apple,' was described as 'an instant classic' (Paste). In other words, the self-proclaimed 'Bastard Son of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez' has remained a master of literate, brash, insightful and acerbically funny folk, rock and pop throughout a 15-year career and more than ten albums. Appleseed's new 'It Happened One Night & It Never Happened At All ' is a musical and historical windfall for critics, fans and Harding newbies alike the 2-CD set marries an expanded, remastered 19-track version of Harding's live, solo, acoustic debut, 'It Happened One Night,' with a second disc of 14 previously unreleased studio recordings from the late Eighties, some featuring members of Elvis Costello's Attractions. Although the man known as Wes (real name Wesley Stace; renamed himself after Bob Dylan's 1968 watershed John Wesley Harding album) expresses second thoughts in his characteristically self-mocking liner notes about the common sense of releasing a live debut, 'It Happened One Night' remains a memorable calling card, presenting such favorites-to-be as 'The Devil in Me,' the hilariously irreverent Live Aid 'tribute, July 13 1985,' and the tender 'Save a Little Room for Me.' But according to Wes, 'my first album should have been 'It Never Happened At All' - a whole different album I was making in 1988/89 with great musicians . . .forgotten, dispersed all over the place, and now presented here...To me, it is my alternative first record from a parallel world where you can have two debut albums.' Including eight studio versions of 'It Happened' songs, many with full band accompaniment from members of the Attractions, Lindisf
