​Reckless Johnny Wales (from the album Red, White, and Reckless available on Amerikandy Records)
The life of Reckless Johnny Wales is the stuff of legend, and has been documented time and time again, so there is little I can add to it. What supports the man and his beliefs is Red, White, and Reckless, the recent release from Reckless Johnny Wales. Rather than taking his words from today’s headlines, Reckless Johnny Wales talks back to the talking heads with opening tune “(Won’t You) Drive Up to the Country (with Me)” asking ‘now do you find it kind of hard to keep a smile on your face?’. The tune puts politics into a simple request to go for a drive, matching the tone to its audio mates on Red, White, and Reckless. While Johnny can get as deep as any other musician with a guitar, he realizes that figuring out his message is not as important as coming up with a plan. To fulfill that goal, Reckless Johnny Wales takes aim, fires, and hits his mark saluting the flag with pride, reminding of our intentions as he lists the obstacles with “America, You’re Beautiful”. 
A slide guitar begins the groove for “Always Was, Always Will” when Reckless Johnny Wales ascends the podium and targets gun control while he issues a warning as the beat stomps towards the barricades for “Everybody Get Real” while he is the three chords and the truth version of a man of science in “If Climate Change Don’t Change Your Mind”. Stepping to Latin rhythms for the Blue Jazz of “Desperate” Red, White and Reckless strikes a somber note(s) for “They’re Dying to Come Home” and struts in a Rock’n’Roll backbeat for “We’re the Boomers”. Rosemary Fossee duets on the noir cabaret of “Am I a Fool” while Reckless Johnny Wales stands alone behind the claim ‘I’m the reckless one, I am the carefree prodigal son’ as a dry, dusty desert symphony backs his commentary in “Not About Nice”.
