Memphis rock vet and Back To The Light podcast host J.D. Reager has a new album, Where Wasn’t I?
The song “Hammer Mannequin,” Reager says, “… is both a tribute to the great sports reporter Vince Cellini and a bit of a pep talk to myself. I might not ever be the star of the show, but I can be the engine that makes it go — and that’s got to be enough.”
The video was directed by Memphis’ Jack Alberson under the name J. Robot. “I love what Jack came up with for this video,” says Reager. “He combined footage he shot around Memphis with some phone videos I shot in my old neighborhood in Chicago, plus some other scraps we both dug up, and made something really fun and befitting of the song.”
