2011 sophomore album from the British Indie troubadour. Like his debut, Sweat Defeat is once again produced by Tristan Longworth supported ably by the same group of musicians who contributed to his debut. It's an 11 song collection that displays the maturity and cohesiveness of an artist growing in confidence. It builds on Americana/acoustic foundations, ranging from solo finger picked songs like 'Last Orders' to the laid back 'Tulsa Sound' of J.J. Cale on the bluesy 'Lucky I guess' to the album's title track, an upbeat number complete with a brass section that conjures up memories of Van Morrison at his soulful best. Monologue Records.

CORAGEOUS ALLEN
Among the anodyne products that we have to suffer in the present musical panorama, Jon Allen's music comes in as a puff of fresh air. When listening to him you think of the best music in the 70's, yet his style is modern and personal. Quite recommendable.

Jon Allen does it again
With the perfect mixture of soul, pop, and rock, Jon Allen has put together another wonderful album. Do not hesitate and get it!

Outstanding songwriter and performer
Ignore the obvious - yes he does sound a little like Rod Stewart but this guy is a real talent believe me. Rarely do you get an album where EVERY track is a really good one but on the strength of the title track, which I heard on the radio, I bought this album and I was blown away. He only has three albums out, this is his second. I immediately ordered the other two. I would recommend you do the same, you will NOT be disappointed !

Great Rod Stewart type voice
While old Rod sings old American Songbook songs Jon Allen sings ballards and country style songs with style and panash.
