Hall of Fame:
1983-present
James Dalton
"Smile Goodbye To The Kings And Clowns"
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!
JPAT calls this the "little album that could" as it was an indie release that achieved radio airplay on three continents. It contains some of his best work. In fact, every song is strong here and all got airplay on my online station. The first track shown here gave me the name for a compilation album released by Upstage Magazine.
