[ J O N O M A N S O N ] One Horse Town - 1997 - JONO'S FIRST RELEASE ON CLUB DE MUSIQUE RECORDS "One Horse Town" is a critically - acclaimed, fourteen song CD which features guest appearances by John Popper of Blues Traveler, Members of the James Brown horns, and many other great musicians from the New York roots rock scene. The album also contains some of the last recorded performances of late piano legend Nicky Hopkins. "Jono Manson is a soulful guitarist and singer who here leads a loose band through some R&B - tinged rock. Though the disc includes such guests as Nicky Hopkins, fellow Downtown NYC icon Ron Sunshine and Blues Traveler's harmonica prodigy John Popper, the show here belongs to Manson, whose rich and smooth vocals are complimented by a limber band of equally impressive talent" Huh Magazine "One Horse Town is nothing short of a portable saturday night. It comes complete with smoking horns, hot players (like the late keyboard god Nicky Hopkins, drummer Ian Wallace and harpist John Popper) and no frills R&B and all thats missing is Manson working the crowd between songs. Equal parts NRBQ, Asbury Dukes and side four of Exile on Main Street" Phoenix New Times
