(c’90) Jo Bartlett (guitar/vocal), Rudy Carroll (guitar / vocals / sax), Danny Hagan (bass), and Kevin Morey (drums).

While in Bluetrain, Bartlett and Carroll got together as an acoustic duo. They played a few venues and there were some recordings laid down in a German studio. These recordings helped secure a spot in The Singapore Festival of Arts, for which they augmented the duo with Hagan, and Morey.

Before Singapore, on 15 June ’90, Here Comes Jordon, along with The Vinegar Blossom, were scheduled to support Flowered Up at The Buzz Club at West End Centre, Aldershot. Flowered Up cancelled and Eusebio stepped in to headline. The festival in Singapore had the band appearing at Bibi’s Theatre Pub, hotel bars and shopping malls during that following week in June, performing a 40-minutes set that included “Time Sweet Time” “Angel Smile”, “Parade” and “Mercy Sake”, as well as on the festival’s main stage that was situated on Orchard Road. Sharon Lim reviewed Here Comes Jordan’s performance at Raffles City for Singapore’s The Straits Times.

Bartlett and Hagan went on to form the duo It’s Jo and Danny.
