Garland Jeffreys
Garland Jeffreys is an all-round artist, and in particular a songwriter
concerned with the racial question in American society. A friend of Lou Reed -
with whom he shared the stage - and a protégé of Bruce Springsteen, the author
of "Wild in the Street" (1977) and "Matador " (1981) unfortunately doesn't seem
to have reaped the success he deserved, and it's with modesty that the musician
has crossed four decades, sowing his seed with clever compositions mixing rock,
soul, rhythm'n'blues and reggae, reflecting the cultural melting pot that is his
hometown, New York.
