2010, The long awaited new solo album PLAY YARD BLUES from the Europe guitar player. A fantastic collection of John Norum originals aswell as a couple of covers. The difference with previous solo is that PLAY YARD BLUES shows a little different side of John. The trademark sound and riffings are definitely there but John also follows a more bluesy approach in several songs. With the success of the recent Europe album, this album will find it's way to his already massive fanbase aswell as to an audience of say Frank Marino. PLAY YARD BLUES is a great album with some spectacular playing from one of the best.
