Jimmy Johnson – Johnson’s Whacks

Description

Jimmy Johnson – Johnson’s Whacks
Delmark DD 644 (1991)
Compact Disc

When Jimmy Johnson’s first album, Johnson’s Whacks hit the streets at the end of the seventies, he was heralded as being part of a new blues generation that could actually write fully-realized, mature SONGS (as opposed to borrowing or stealing jukebox standards). Delmark even printed a lyric sheet for that LP, a first in blues cover art!
