Even if you didn't like the Blues, you'd have to perk up and have your ear caught, and then you'd listen closer. See ya' Johnny! GfS |

Running all around, knocking mic stands over.Dressed in black, long white hair flyin' all over. A buddy of mine sold him a Gibson Firebird that day. Hot Tuna followed, Van Morrison closed. A fine fest indeed. Rock in Peace, JW |

I was no more than 50 feet from the stage during Johnny's set. He later came back onstage and jammed with The Allman Brothers Band during their closing set. |
