I, Jonathan is the fourth studio album by Jonathan Richman, released by Rounder Records in 1992. As a founding member of the influential proto-punk band The Modern Lovers, Richman built a reputation for conveying authentic emotions and storytelling with his music. Stepping out as a solo artist in the ‘80s, he  continued this aesthetic with simple and sparse rock and roll arrangements, and straightforward lyrics about mundane topics. I Jonathan includes the fan favorites “I Was Dancing In The Lesbian Bar,†“That Summer Feeling†and “Parties in the U.S.A.â€
