Johnny Warman - Walking Into Mirrors

Mirrors and beyond
Who is this Johnny Warman, and how did he manage to borrow Peter Gabriel's band at the height of their early '80s awesomeness? Maybe more impressive than that hustle is his ability to rip off "Dear Prudence" in the verses and then ride Tony Levin's boomstick authority to a triumphant chorus. Bummer it went right to the dustbin of history. Rescued now for your listening pleasure. And for extra enjoyment, check out the awkwardly/excellently dated music video.

Fantastic - never heard of this guy, but man my brother and I would have loved seeing this right next to our Def Leppard and Police videos around '82. - Jason
