Who Shot John? (ORANGE VINYL) [Vinyl]

Eric Schenkman, founding guitar player for the Spin Doctors, is a vital songwriter and virtuoso guitarist who both crafted the ’90s band and co-wrote all five of their Top 100 hits. His self-produced third solo album, WHO SHOT JOHN?, showcases the many sides of ERIC SCHENKMAN from raw, rockin’ blues to funk/soul/pop. With its elemental lineup of guitar, bass and drums, and songs that seldom stray beyond three chords, it’s radio-friendly and familiar enough to draw listeners in. After that, the complexities reveal themselves. The proof is in the beats, in the intimacy of those late nights on the stage and through every moment of WHO SHOT JOHN? SCHENKMAN nailed the grooves with long time pals, drummers Van Romaine (Enrique Iglesias) and Cody Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars) and co-producer/bassist Shawn Kellerman (Lucky Peterson), working in studios in Newark, NJ, Kitchener, NY and Memphis, TN.
