Albert Hammond Jr. mentioned John in an interview for the german magazine Musikexpress. Here's the excerpt: Do any current guitarists come to your mind that are better than you?

He can do absolutely anything with the guitar. Source: Musikexpress...
�C�mo Te Llama? Albert Hammond's second solo album sounds a good deal like his first -- that is, like a watered-down release by his regular band, the Strokes.
First it was Albert Hammond, Jr. , then Fabrizio Moretti , and now Nikolai Fraiture has become the latest Strokes member to go at it alone. Fraiture has gone solo and formed a new group with help from a few well known musicians. Fraiture has recruited Regina Spektor and Yeah Yeah Yeahs ‘ guitarist Nick Zinner for his new band called Nickel Eye . Although the band has set up their myspace page at Myspace.com/officialnickeleye...

From one of my FAVORITE music blogs Songbytoad IN FULL: Fear not, this isn’t quite as horribly overbearing as it could have been. The ranting is actually fairly under control, and the self-important pontificating not quite as reckless as it could so easily have been, partly because I wasn’t quite as liberal with the gin as I have been in the past. The reason it’s called the Popecast is because

Supermodel Agyness Deyn can’t seem to do any wrong recently - and yesterday proved no exception. The 25-year-old, currently the most in-demand model on the planet, wowed 45,000 ecstatic fans when she sang with New York band Five O’Clock Heroes at the T4 On The Beach party. Agyness looked in her element as she took the stage [...]
A few weeks back I had the pleasure of being invited out to an private show by Albert Hammond Jr. at New York’s Mercury Lounge to celebrate the release of his second solo disc ¿Como Te Llama? The Strokes guitarist played a tight hour long set that featured material mostly from his latest release [...]
There was a man in our village who never in his life had a pet of any kind until his wife died. By my calculation, Gerard Loomis was in his mid-fifties when Marietta was taken from him, but at the ceremony in the chapel he looked so scorched and stricken that people mistook him for [...]
With Julian Casablancas palling around with Pharrell and Santogold and Albert Hammond Jr. on the other side of a second solo album , the Strokes seem pretty content being a coalition of loosely affiliated artists instead of a functioning band, despite a claim on their website that "the guys are set to get together and get back at it [in] early 2009." ( Maybe with Pharrell behind the boards ?) The...
