First my appreciation to Boris Gargate for give me this special recording. This is a new version on piano and saxophone in this beautiful song. This song, lamenting a romance that ended in betrayal, was the first track from the group's debut album, and its first single release in both the UK (1987) and US (1988). It became a Top 5 hit in both countries; in the US the song also accomplished the rare feat of having two separate peaks in its chart run.
There was no Johnny in Johnny Hates Jazz; this English Pop group was named for a Jazz-hating mutual friend of the three original members, Calvin Hayes, Mike Nocito and frontman Clark Datchler (who wrote this song). Ironically enough, the group got its big break while performing at a Jazz club, where they were discovered and eventually signed by Virgin Records.
