A Dylan-obsessed English teacher then invited the class to bring in song lyrics for analysis and discussion. After the Howard Jones and Duran Duran fans… there was me.
For a guy who used to have the reputation of being an "angry young man", Joe Jackson seems to really be enjoying himself now. It takes this writer back to a 1984 show in Boston, Massachusetts when Jackson seemed a bit somber and unexpectedly announced that the concert that night was to be his last show ever.
How to distil a 40-year catalogue into two hours? Rather than go down the standard greatest hits route, the Joe Jackson Four Decade tour revisited one album from each decade of the singer-songwriter’s career, beginning with his most recent work.
