Thomas Lang\\u2019s honeyed tenor tones drew comparisons, at the time of its original release, with the smooth, sultry jazz drenched moods of Sade and the warmth and expressive inflections of Alison Moyet. For sure, Thomas Lang had a big, classy voice and an easy, dashing elegance. His debut album was written with, and co-produced by, one of the leading Merseyside musicians of the day, David A. Hughes who had previous associations with local acts Dalek I Love You, OMD and The Lotus Eaters and who would go on to forge a notable career composing for film and television. David A. Hughes co-produced Thomas Lang\\u2019s album with Pete Smith, whose stellar record production credits now include such luminaries as Sting, Gary Moore, The Adventures, Squeeze and Randy Crawford.   \\u2022\\u2018Scallywag Jaz\\u2019 presents music that is a moody, melancholic m\\xe9lange featuring saxophones and pianos. The songs swing towards a hazy nostalgia for half-empty \\u201950s dancehalls and ballrooms. It was recorded at Liverpool\\u2019s legendary Amazon Studios. The album amply demonstrates Thomas and his cohorts\\u2019 diverse musical stylings in songs that range from the jazzy instrumentation of the title track through the torch vocals of \\u2018Fingers \u0026amp; Thumbs\\u2019.\u003cp\u003eFINGERS \u0026amp; THUMBS\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHE HAPPY MAN (7'\\x9d DJ VERSION)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHE HAPPY MAN\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHE HAPPY MAN (NEW VERSION)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBOYS PREFER\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBOYS PREFER (SINGLE VERSION)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eME AND MRS JONES\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSLEEP WITH ME (DEMO)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSCALLYWAG JAZ\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRED\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSHOELACES (MRS JONES PART 2)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHE MORE THAT YOU EXPECT\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTRENGTH\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSCARED\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSLEEP WITH ME\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI BELIEVE\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSPIRIT\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFINGERS \u0026amp; THUMBS (LIVE AT LIVERPOOL PHILHARMONIC HALL, 2016)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eINJURY\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHE HAPPY MAN (LIVE IN TOKYO, 1991)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eENVY\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eENVY (LIVE AT LIVERPOOL PHILHARMONIC HALL, 2016)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA DIFFERENCE\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eME \u0026amp; MRS JONES (LIVE AT LIVERPOOL PHILHARMONIC HALL, 2011)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCRY BABY\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSHOELACES : MRS JONES PART 2 (LIVE AT LIVERPOOL PHILHARMONIC HALL, 2011)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMRS JONES MEETS GODZILLA\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHAVE YOU MET MISS JONES?
