Post Description

It’s not an easy thing to make a comeback 25 years after you first began to make a name for yourself. It’s especially not easy when the music landscape has changed almost entirely between 1988 when Turn Back the Clock produced a handful of mega-hits and now. Furthermore, it’s doubly difficult when the two main members of a group did not talk to each other for 22 years… 22 years!! Yikes. 

And it takes guts to say ‘this album is the sequel to ‘Turn Back the Clock’, and yes, it sounds like that— although while taking full advantage of digital technology that is now available. Yes Clark Datchler still sings just like Clark Datchler did when he sang ‘Shattered Dreams’ and yes Mike Nocito still looks like the tall guy who starred on Seinfeld, though with a better haircut. Not sure you could say Clark has a better haircut these days. And the songs are still the sort of hook catchy, singable, get inside your head and you keep humming them pop songs they did in the first place in the late 80s. They are soooo…. 80s. And there is nothing wrong with that. They are just doing what they do so well, with a little 25 year hiatus between albums one and two. No problem…. those of us who thoroughly enjoyed the first wave of Johnny, will really enjoy the comeback as well.
