Hi I’m a relative of Jake and I’m just telling you to go check out his nephews music 🎵 I personally find it quite enjoyable his name is Jake Burns and some of his best songs are California bound,Ocean away and temporary seasons enjoy ☺️

[@michaelolgaalgar5729]

Probably the best Punk lead vocalists in the world. and songwriter of course. Could listen to Jake all day.

[@monkiemind1596]

Agreed!🙂

[@nicolamoody7976]

Hi I’m a relative of Jake his Nephew has recently released some new music go check it out he is also called Jake Burns his best song is California bound is growing still but is amazing enjoy ❤

[@billhandley943]

Awesome!

[@dannyho6786]

Fucking great man !!!

[@fraser9056]

Been going to their gigs since 1980. How is it the older he gets the less gravely his voice becomes?

[@themeltdownz8901]

Probably because he didn't want to ruin his voice with adding an unpracticed gravely tone so he stopped adding in distortion to his voice to make sure it stayed powerful into his later years. That's my take on it coz I've also thought about this too

[@gmantramp404]

1980 & 5 stones ago 😂😂lol

[@oliverrickard9970]

@@themeltdownz8901 believe it or not singer's use the distorted tone as a practise exercise....it actually helps

[@RedNightDragon1]

One, what The Meltdownz said, he wanted to lay off the harshness to preserve his voice. Two, I think he found he could sing higher than he originally thought and pursued that. Three, around '81/'82, he was headed in a pop direction anyway, and wanted to get his smooth voice practiced.

[@douglasjones3105]

Fantastic song, and great raconteur too. Great stuff.

[@rogerbelger2014]

im constantly in shock when i see my early 80s rock n roll heroes in these modern times - they look drastically different! not all of them but most. not just Jake Burns but have you seen The Churchs' Marty Wilson-Piper lately ?! he was the coolest , most beautiful guitar player of them all, but not anymore. time marches on, this life we live is so short " like a vapor" the Bible says..

[@trchwdspnfan80]
