John Dawson Read is an English singer-songwriter. Born in Wokingham, Berkshire, England, Read first came to prominence in 1975 with his debut album ''A Friend of Mine Is Going Blind'', released on Chrysalis Records. The album's title song was written by Read for a friend of his who suffered from Muscular Dystrophy. Read credits his friend with having been a writing inspiration for years, as well as being responsible for his debut album, having sent Read's songs to publishers. Read’s second album, ''Read On'', was released in 1976, again on Chrysalis. After this release Read seemed to disappear from the music business. Fans had little success finding information on Read until singer-songwriter Michael Johnson put an MP3 of “A Friend of Mine Is Going Blind” on his (website ). Many Read fans began communicating through the site, and this was one factor which encouraged Read to re-enter the music world after spending most of the time between 1976 and 2005 in a business partnership in marketing. Read credits his discovery of (Pristine Audio ) as being “the second most influential factor in ‘getting back into it.’” Andrew Rose of Pristine Audio remastered ''A Friend of Mine Is Going Blind'' and ''Read On''. () In 2005, Read released his third CD after a nearly 30 year absence from the music world. This CD, entitled ''Now...Where were we?'' begins with “Days of Sweet Remembrance (reprise)" from the album ''Read On''. ==External links== *(Official website ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Dawson Read」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
