John Hanlon was a New Zealand singer/songwriter of the Mid-70’s. He wrote some charming pop/rock music, often dealing with simple, day-to-day themes or New Zealand environmental issues (e.g. Dam the Dam, a protest song about damming a NZ lake for hydroelectricity). This is arguably Hanlon’s best album of the 1970s in terms of sound and song quality. It featured his Number One hit Lovely Lady, the soaring Higher Trails and a raft of songs that showcased a songwriter at the top of his game supported by sensational arrangements, brilliant musicians and production standards the equal of anything recorded on the planet at that time. Voted New Zealand Album of the Year for 1975.
