James Dalton
"Come Back to the Jersey Shore"

Released in 2005

James Dalton (aka JPAT) is a singer-songwriter from the Jersey Shore who is one of the best vocalists in Jersey history in my opinion. It's a set of pipes that has led around the world from festivals to little tours to cruise ships. His passport should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

This track gave me the name for a compilation album released by Upstage Magazine.
