Joe Jackson 'Strange Land'

__________
AVAILABLE TO DOWNLOAD AND STREAM NOW.

“Is this a strange land / Or am I the stranger?”

Today, Joe Jackson reveals the second song from his upcoming studio album “Fool”.
Undoubtedly musical, touchingly beautiful and lyrically powerful, “Strange Land” explores a sense of place in today’s world.

“Fool”, the 20th studio album celebrating the artist’s 40th anniversary, is going to be released as CD Digipak, 1LP+download, Limited 1LP+7inch Vinyl+download (incl. 2 previously unreleased songs) and Digital on January 18th, 2019 on earMUSIC.

The album was co-produced by Jackson and producer Pat Dillett (David Byrne, Sufjan Stevens, Glen Hansard, etc.) The band in question was the same group that Jackson has played live with ever since the release of “Fast Forward”: Teddy Kumpel on guitar, Doug Yowell on drums, and long-time collaborator Graham Maby on bass (Maby was on that first recording session 40 years ago as well).

Starting February 2019, Jackson and the band will embark on a new world tour, playing shows throughout the US and Europe and performing material drawn off five albums (“Look Sharp (1979)”, “Night And Day (1982)”, “Laughter And Lust (1991)”, “Rain (2008)” and “Fool (2019)”) as well as a couple of songs from other albums and some new covers.

I'm obsessed with this song and I can't even coherently say why.

[leighjohnston]

Joe Jackson is "Fabulously Absolute" !! Thanks for all the great years JJ !

[marcocattaneo]

Starting from 1989, I think I heard him live everytime he came to Milano, Italy. I never get tired of his music, and i think his last group is simply amazing.

[ofenblase]

Welcome back Joe Jackson. Back to the 80´s. Night and Day.

[wellenstrom]

still there, unbreakable, a monument of music.

[pascalabadie]

Bravo à vous Mr. Joe Jackson. It makes me happy to hear this great voice and piano. Super génial. ça change de toutes les immondes variétoches insipides que l'on peut entendre sur les radios. (surtout en France où le bon goût a foutu le camp depuis des lustres...)

[sconniepanda]

- Joe Jackson is a great composer and great musician with a fantastic voice - Il a toujours été le meilleur present au Concert du 14 Avril à Paris

Wow I am floored. I loved Joe Jackson right up till Nght and Day. I tried to keep up with his body of work but I gravitated to other new artists because I just could find anything in his music that kept my attention. I still loved him for the first 4 or 5 albums But this record is simply a gem. This is a masterpiece. His best work since Night and Day. I am so glad he found his old self again. I am so proud of him. Something big must have happened in his life to bring so much emotion to his new music. Whomever this person is that passed away and is mentioned at the end of the new songs must have been a big influence. Thank you Joe for this amazing record.

[willweber]

Thank you, Joe for being back. What a beautiful song. Love it.

[honoredebalzac]

I love all Joe Jackson songs. The new and the especially the old...in Montreal, I hope he will play my favorites, "Sunday Papers, " for example. That means tabloids. And broadsheets. Big respect.
