Johnny Hates Jazz

When Johnny Hates Jazz released the single 'Shattered Dreams' (1986), it propelled the Anglo-American New Wave and Blue-eyed soul band into the realm of super-stardom. The single reached the top five in the UK and America, and the subsequent album - 'Turn Back the Clock' (1988) - soared straight to the number 1 spot in the UK. The album spawned another three hit singles before the band split. They have since (2009) reformed. Johnny Hates Jazz are Clark Datchler lead singer and songwriter, Calvin Hayes keyboards and drums, and Mike Nocito bass guitar and lead guitar.
