	John Henry (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Henry is the name of They Might Be Giants' fifth original album, although it is the sixth disc in their discography.
		It is the first album in which John Linnell and John Flansburgh utilized a full band, as opposed to playing most or all of the instruments themselves.
		The album's name, a reference to the man vs. machine fable of John Henry, is roughly an allusion to the band's fundamental switch to more conventional instrumentation, especially the newly-established use of a human drummer instead of a drum machine.

		John Henry the folk hero's losing fight with the machine refers to Them struggling with Elektra, which insisted they add a back-up band, even if they weren't keen on the idea at first.
		John Henry is the doomed underdog quixotically shaking his fist at larger forces.
		Elliot and Maxwell are like musicians in the film, and like John Henry in the legend, in that they had one thing they did well - football/music/driving steel - and they have bosses who try to work them until they break, because they're valued for what they produce, but their persons aren't respected at all.

	John Henry - The Music - Music Analysis
		Guy Johnson, in his definitive 1928 study, calls John Henry "the Negro's greatest folk character." Which is why the facts of John Henry's literal life - as a fl man trying to work his way through a "reconstructed" South - are only incidental to the countless versions of his story passed down over a century.
		JOHN FAHEY, a philosophy student at American University, recorded his wordless, rambling "John Henry Variations" in 1963 and again in 1967.
		In other words, John Henry is as much a hero to a pill-popping rockabilly singer in Nashville, Tennessee as a fl man in the lock-up at the State Penitentiary.

	Bruce Springsteen lyrics - JOHN HENRY
		John Henry and men like him were driving holes in the faces of mountains into which explosive charges would be placed, as the railroads blasted locomotive tunnels.
		John Henry met this challenge by offering to race the drill, to see which of them could open a deeper hole in the mountain in a given period of time.
		Since John Henry is understood to be a fl man--menial occupations on the railroad were racially distributed--it is a story about the strength and courage of the African-American people.

	John Henry - This Might Be A Wiki
		"John Henry is a legendary fl railroad worker from the middle of the nineteenth century.
		John Henry sounds as good as any TMBG effort, but on inspection, I think it also proves to be one of their deepest and most cohesive albums.
		The sound is also vaguely more "metal" than the sort of candy-coated synthesizers and horns that characterized their earlier albums (not that there's any absence of horns), from the rough-edged accordion opening of Subliminal to the grungy guitars on Sleeping In The Flowers and others.

	CD review: "Lightnin', Joel & John Henry"
		Lightnin' insisted the three brothers record together, so Strachwitz set up his portable tape recorder while the three musicians entertained themselves and their mother in John Henry's rather primitive shack (the photograph on the sleeve proves this description is no mere romanticization).
		Joel plays in the traditional country style of Blind Lemon Jefferson, with whom he once lived, while John Henry's music is a vibrant, rough and rambling music, depending more on force of delivery and charisma than precision or technique.
		Lightnin', as he was wont to do, improvised much of the material on the spot, such as the lead tune, "See About My Brother John Henry," which Strachwitz believes was made up right then, as he also believes was "I Got a Brother in Waxahachie" (the town where Lightnin' had finally tracked down John Henry).

		I like this album because it shows the influence of grunge on a few tracks while also staying true to the stylistic flipping from song to song that they are known for.
		This album establishes beyond a doubt that TMBG are among the most gifted songwriters in rock history.
		The sound is also vaguely more _metal_ than the sort of candy-coated synthesizers and horns that characterized their earlier albums (not that there's any absence of horns), from the rough-edged harmonica opening of Subliminal to the grungy guitars on Sleeping In The Flowers and others.

	John Henry Music
		Even with the addition of bass, drums, sax, and trumpet, the focus is still on the goofy vocals, silly lyrical puns, and accordion-driven hooks of John Flansburgh and John Linnell, and that is not a good thing.
		The only problem with this album is that it is their longest and features the most amount of songs that are longer than their trademark of under 3 minutes, even 2 minutes.
		Myself and my fellow TMBG fans derided it as a "teen angst album," moaned and whined that John and John had betrayed us by adding a band, and generally refused to give it a chance.

		For their fifth full album of new material, the duo of John Linnel and John Flansburgh (who are They Might Be Giants) expand their lineup into a full-fledged band.
		They'd been touring as such for a year or two prior to the making of this album and the first peek came with a couple of tracks on the previous year's WHY DOES THE SUN SHINE?
		But once the singing enters and the song's narrative takes shape, it could be none other than these masters of cerebral fun.

		I was reading the liner notes or whatever they're called that come with John Henry and on the last page it said that JH is Their 5th album...
		In the immortal words of Braham Ketcham: >I was reading the liner notes or whatever they're called that come with John >Henry and on the last page it said that JH is Their 5th album...
		So we were moshing in the front, and Flans dedicates a song to "the angry young gentlemen in the front" and said "Remember: if you have to kick someone in the face, do it in your own head." That stuck with me. The concert turned me into a full-fledged TMBG junkie.
