Stumbled across some recent Johnnie Fingers activity on You Tube under banner of the above. Can't quite make out if it's just a project name or what. Seems to be a combination of music, original and other artists, and fairly arty videos, predominantly in Japan by look of it.

Worth a look and listen. The track Dublin features our hero in the video, at least I can't believe it's not him. Looks pretty recognisable even 30 years on.

 It's very good.  A damn sight better than the Ratsh!t EP.

That said this effort wouldn't be amiss of the RatSh!t ep,  more John Lennon than Johnnie Fingers

Definitely worth looking at and thanks for posting Suss. 

Not my bag either though and worse than Ratlife. At least that was redeemed by Back to Boomtown.

The first minute is not by Non Native, so wonder why it appears in the video?

Here a link to Fingers (family footage?) Glendalough Monastic Site Co Wicklow sometime in the seventies.

Music seems to be by Fingers too. Just spotted this while doing some research on Non Native. Johnnie must have been pretty obsessed with the piano, judging by the pullover he's wearing.smile

I've been to Glendalough Nature Reserve/National Park - it's beautiful there!

It doesn't do anything much for me. The first one is better once it gets past the 'rappy' bit. Can take it or leave it.

 Dreadful videos, manage to be both lackluster and try-hard, but some of the music's fairly decent. Minus the rap and Dublin's a good track.
