Details

Jack Yarber (aka Jack O) is an underground Memphis legend. With a band family tree that goes back to the early 80s with Corinth, Mississippi punks Johnny Vomit and the Dry Heaves and Memphis new wavers The End through ragged rockers the Compulsive Gamblers and the influential garage punk trio the Oblivians, Yarber knows no bounds - and, unlike many in his field - seems to get better with age. After putting a blender to Dan Penn, Dr. Feelgood, Marc Bolan and Ike Turner on his last five solo records, "The Disco Outlaw" is the happy result of his musical exploration and ambition: a focused album packed with bits and pieces of his past that flows seamlessly to create something entirely new. Is this the year Yarber finally gets his due?
