2019 album and the 16th by British singer-songwriter John Howard, Cut The Wire, gets it's vinyl debut as part of Think Like A Key Music's singer-songwriter series. The album, originally released on Spain's You Are The Cosmos label, was written and recorded by Howard at his Una Casita studio in Murcia after working on his first autobiography, Incidents Crowded With Life. It was a creative process whose influence can be clearly heard on these new compositions.John plays and sings everything on the album, which starts distinctively with an acoustic folksy "So Here I Go" that acts as a prelude to the more familiar piano balladry and clever songcraft that are John Howard hallmarks since the 1975 debut album Kid In A Big World on CBS Records.This edition features a fresh new remaster by Prof. Stoned, bringing more life to an already consistently high-quality album and important release in Howard's catalog.
