Info for Jukebox Junkie



Famed Hanoi Rocks guitarist/vocalist Andy McCoy taps into the rich musical history that inspired him on this highly addictive covers album! Features an eclectic mix of songs originally by reggae legend Toots & The Maytals, David Bowie, '80s hitmakers Squeeze, rockabilly queen Wanda Jackson and more!

The album features an eclectic mix of songs showcasing not only McCoy’s love of numerous styles and genres but also his immense gift for synthesizing such different artists into a cohesive song sequence. On “Jukebox Junkie”, reggae legend Toots Hibbert’s “54-46 That’s My Number” grooves next to “Take Me I’m Yours” by ‘80s hitmakers Squeeze while Iggy & Bowie’s “China Girl” and rockabilly queen Wanda Jackson’s fantastic “Funnel Of Love” highlight the album’s second half.

"These are songs that everyone ought to know. I chose them from a list of 60 that I thought deserved to be bigger hits. I think this is the most colorful album I have ever done.” (Andy McCoy)

In 1981 he quit from the band and went on to start Hanoi Rocks. After Hanoi Rocks broke up he played in various bands, including Anita Chelman Cherry Bombz, The Suicide Twins, Iggy Pop's touring band, and the Shooting Gallery, before finally deciding to go solo. In the summer of 2001 Andy together with Michael Monroe did some gigs at Finnish Rock festivals as Hanoi Revisited. March 27th 2002 the rebirth of Hanoi Rocks became official. Andy's eccentric lifestyle has been documented in the film The Real McCoy, which had its world premiere in 1999 in the Gothenbourg film-festival in Sweden and The Berlin film festival in Germany along with many other awards, Also, following the success of the Internationally acclaimed film, MTV3 aired a Tv series titled 'The McCoys Show', a Finnish reality TV-show about the day to day adventures of Andy and his wife, Angela Nicoletti McCoy. In 1999, as a part of the film The Real McCoy marketing campaign, the producing company raised money to fix Andy McCoy's teeth which were badly damaged by methadone.
