Johnny,I've seen you countless times over the years,mostly back in the'60's and early '70's,at various folk clubs,also at Cambridge Folk Festival.You could always be relied on to give a powerful,warm performance,with a good bit of humour thrown in.
I remember the first time I heard your incredible strong voice belting out "Midnight Special",and "Corn bread,Peas,and Black Molasses",I think it was on an L.P.called "Alex Campell and Friends" Sandy Denny was on it too,Alex and Sandy are both long gone of course,and now we hear this sad news about yourself.

Thanks Johnny,for your inspiration,and lots of great memories,you'll be greatly missed by a generation(or two!)of people.
I don't know what else to say.........except THANKS.
