In episode 60 we welcome Clark Datchler, songwriter and front man of Johnny Hates Jazz. An early 80s soul boy born into good Jazz stock on his Father's side.
Employed as a songwriter at Micky Most's RAK studios, which is where he met the other members of what later became JHJ, working with the legendary engineer Phil Thornalley.
We hear about perfecting the art of high end pop, the need to get out of the limelight, the disdain for critics and how hard it was in the 90s for an ex-80s pop star, releasing solo material.
Johnny Hates Jazz are still touring and releasing material with renewed vigour - DA
