Some might, justifiably, compare James Leg's voice to that of Tom Waits'. That's fair enough. Popmatters says this about the sound:
"I try to shy away from “this album sounds like the result of Band X taking Band Y out for tacos then going to see Band Z perform aboard a submarine” write-ups, but with James Leg (aka John Wesley Myers of the Black Diamond Heavies and the Immortal Lee County Killers), the description is just too tantalizing to pass up."

His debut solo record--Solitary Pleasure--was issued in a limited edition of pink vinyl. The colour of that vinyl strikes me as odd, given the overly masculine sound of his voice. It should have been pressed on black vinyl. The only other release was on CD.
