http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2795&rws=%2Ffreedy-johnston%2Fdiscography.rssAfter garnering some notice for his ragged 1990 debut album <i>The Trouble Tree</i>, New Jersey-based Midwestern transplant Freedy Johnston stunned the record industry when his second independent release <i>Can You Fly</i> sold an unprecedented 40,000 copies. The record was full of both brilliantly edgy Folk-Rock songs and somber ballads, and topped a number of music polls in 1992. Johnston was snapped up by Elektra, who promptly put on the full-court press for his next record. Produced by alt-rock superproducer Butch Vig, <i>This Perfect World</i> (1994) yielded a minor hit with "Bad Reputation." Johnston maintains a large loyal following and continues to put out smart, challenging records. - Tom HeymanModern Folken720Tue, 29 Dec 2009 08:20:50 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2795&rws=%2Ffreedy-johnston%2Fdiscography.rss After garnering some notice for his ragged 1990 debut album <i>The Trouble Tree</i>, New Jersey-based Midwestern transplant Freedy Johnston stunned the record industry when his second independent release <i>Can You Fly</i> sold an unprecedented 40,000 copies.
