I am sure that I'm not the only one but anticipation is growing to get more information about John's new album.  Is there any new information?  Has an album title been selected?  How many songs will be on the new record?  What will the cover look like?  What musical direction will John go on this time round?  Will he go back to his youthful rock days or stay on the course he's been on for the last few years?

Tony, if you have any information or updates you can share, please do.

Thanks!

The new album is called Plain Spoken.  Yeah, John has a way with words alright.  Plain and simply spoken.  Love the title!

"Plain Spoken" was a title that was under consideration for the "Freedom's Road" album, but obviously it wasn't ultimately selected.

John even named one of his paintings "Plain Spoken" a few years ago -- as is visible below -- so clearly this phrase has been in his head for some time.



Below is the cover artwork for the live album.
