GREGG SWANN - YES, MAYBE / BLUE IN THE FACE (1995)

Hailing from New-York, Gregg Swann self-released this double CD in 1995. Actually "Yes, Maybe" was a single EP released earlier in 1993. It was included with "Blue In The Face" a couple of years later as a bonus. This album led Gregg Swann to record a full length album "Fever Dream" for the spanish label Bam Balam. After a second album "Dizzy at The Door", released in 1999, Gregg Swann experienced a long hiatus which led him to release in 2006 the amazing "Everybody's got To Be Somewhere". If you've never heard of Gregg Swann and if you dig Paul Westerberg, the dB's, Tom Petty, Elvis Costello and melodic power pop, please listen to this so well crafted power pop. Visit the Gregg Swann official website. "Everybody's got To Be Somewhere" can be purchased from CD Baby.
