JOHN DAVID SOUTHER If The World Was You (2009 UK 11-track CD
album - In 1985, after countless hit records, Grammy nominations,
American Music Awards, and gold and platinum albums, JD Souther
decided to walk away from his solo career. 'If The World Was You' is
his first new solo album in 25 years. Recorded live in the studio
fronting a five-piece ensemble, two horns, piano, bass, and drums,
Souther has crafted an inventive new musical setting for his
characteristically playful and literate musings on life, love, and politics.
The work of a musician at the height of his considerable powers, 'If
The World Was You' is whip-smart, adventurous, seductive, and shot
through with the sublime longing that characterizes Souther's finest
work.)
