Putting together a new Modern Lovers in 1980, with Greg Keranen (who played on the early records), drummer Micheal Guardabascio, Ken Forfia, Ellie Marshall, and Beth Harrington. The group toured and record through 1981-82, and in 1983 'Jonathan Sings!' (Produced by Peter Bernstein, bassist for the renowned LA power pop band The Cretones) appeared on Sire Records. It was worth the wait. 'Jonathan Sings!' marked a new decade, a new band, a new label, and a timeless sound. Available again, as Jonathan originally intended.
