Julian Lennon did an about-face on Mr. Jordan, abandoning the polished mainstream pop of his first two albums for a darker, more rock-oriented sound. Lennon also changed his style of singing, choosing a deeper timbre that was eerily reminiscent of David Bowie -- which was appropriate, because the thick guitars that dominated the album were reminiscent of a kinder variation on Bowie's early-'70s hard rock.

This was his third album after the highly successful Valotte and Secret Value of Daydreaming. Though not a commercial success, it certainly highlights Mr. Lennon's musical talents, switching from the usual bluesy love ballads to a harder, rock & roll sound. He also lowered his voice a couple of octaves, giving him a Bowie-esque kind of sound in places. Highly recommend this as a companion CD to his latest release "Everything Changes".
