Michael Chapman - The Man Who Hated Mornings (RSD 2022) Style:LP he’d left Columbia after thirty

he’d left Columbia after thirty years to sign to Warner Bros

surf guitar rock anthem ‘Locomotive Cheer’

the kind of singular joy and extended ecstatic moment that only a real ‘band’ can express in just that way

The album also features guest vocals from Sam Moore

it finds the newly sober Leftwich's otherworldly talent in full focus
