closet rockers

John ( Jonno ) was born on the 28th of November 1960, to two, fantastically beautiful people, John and Tina Klein, who will always have an emptiness now, with the loss of their only son.
I met John in 1982 at a bar we were in, watching a band, got to chatting and became best mates.
We rarely played together back then.....John was already in a band, " NO EXIT ", Who were outstanding, with other members....Frank Genovesi ( Lead Guitar and vocals ), Dave Kell ( bass and vocals), and Dom ( Rythm Guitar ), but the usual shit happened and they split, he was in lots of other bands since ....but............well you know. We only started playing seriously together in the last four years of his life...( If only we knew ).
John wrote the words to most of the music except for she , he is also the only one singing. There is one song " tick of the clock " , that has special meaning to it for me, because , when we did it, John had just walked in the room ...which surprised me...and asked if we could record this one last tune, he played it once, he played it hard, I thought for sure he was going to drop dead behind the bloody kit, then he got up limped out, went home, and passed away 3 weeks later. It has been 3 years since I have had the drive or inclanation to look at or update the EPK, I will redo a lot of the recordings we did to clean them up and redo my lead ( had a lot more practice since then ). But for now they shall remain as we recorded them.
If you listen to our music you will hear how John loved to play with words, and take the piss out of things..( Teen queen...Take Control...My life )...He also wrote about how he felt about the "Big C "...
( Its clear now ).... and his feelings for his missus, Margaret...( you )....
Please take the time to have a listen to John and take care yourselves from this NASTY BLOODY DISEASE it has no mercy , and always remember that our time on this planet is very bloody short... so as my old mate always said...
