Friend In You – Jon Gibson

Jon Gibson.  Why I like the guy is not because of his singing.  It’s not because of the fact that he’s linked to my man Stevie Wonder.  It’s that just like a lot of me favourites, he creates the whole package – the tune, the words, the melody, the feeling, the whole greater than its […]
