In October 2009 he released his first CD, 'Mistaken Identity'; information on purchasing it can be found at http://music.jwgh.org/cd.html .
The cd was waiting in my mailbox when I got home from w*rk tonight! Listening to it now - loving it! "I know you took my kidney, but you also stole my heart" - best line I've heard all day, har!
Hey Jacob - Gald I finally made if over to everyman bistro open mic. Also, glad we could twist your arm to play a couple songs at the end of the night. All the best Joanne
jake-Thanks for playing the RISA show at Brooklyn Coffee Tea House show. Both serious and funny songs were really well-delivered. You're still the front-runner for the "risa funny-song guy" job. My new material, however, is much less ironic, so folk music fans might come around. Fair warning.
Jacob, I actually like the ways these look, all grainy, b+w, I love them! Thanks for posting them, yer the best. Ive been searching for kitties all morning....
