About Me

JO THE GARDENER is the alter-ego of the mysterious HORSE BADORTIES, who in turn is closely related to JOACHIM GAERTNER, keyboard wizard with psychedelic kraut-legends S/T.
He is also author of the best selling book "They Could Have Been Bigger Than EMI", which will soon appear in a brand new updated second edition.
Discography:
