Wind Of Change

Released in 2009, Wind of Change in one of Johnny Indovina's strongest lyrical albums, and one of his strongest works top to bottom.

An Amazon review:
Johnny Indovina has been an important (and often overlooked) part of the Los Angeles musical landscape since his previous band Human Drama landed here in 1985. 'Wind of Change' (the second release by his current band Sound of the Blue Heart), is a stunning example of introspective songwriting at it's very best.... What a refreshing thing, crack musicians performing songs by a guy who seems to have put genuine thought and emotion into the material that he has created.

I'd place this one right up there with my favorite Lou Reed, Nick Cave & Townes Van Zandt albums.
Seriously.
