I had been searching for a long time for this, and here it is: "Vigilante Man", first and only solo outing by former Thunder (80's) front man John Porter McMeans. Thunder made two great albums, the first a bit rootsier than their second (and final), "Headphones For Cows", which was firmly rooted in 80's AOR. And so is this little solo album,, or rather EP. It has 6 track, 4 of which he previously recorded with Thunder. The two new tracks are a welcome addition to the Thunder albums. Fans of AOR and those who don't mind all those Southern Rock bands who started playing a Southern flavored AOR will thoroughly enjoy this. And I do too. Thanks to Steve for this. Last train to paradise.
