I'd never heard of this guy until I came across some strong recommendations of his 2004 release "Get Inside" while poking around on Amazon. Bought it, and glad I did! Beautiful tone and touch. Much of the material (100% instrumental) has a jazzy blues groove to it, but he incorporates a lot of different styles and influences. Most of the tunes are original, but he does a beautiful rendition of Johnny Rivers "Poor Side of Town" and a very interesting take on Hendrix's "The Wind Cries Mary". My favorite cut is one called "Sing Singing", which is about 4 minutes of pure 6-string joy. Apparently, Johnny has been around a good long time, hailing from the Boston area. Did a stint as Peter Wolf's guitarist for several years and has been fronting his own band since the early 90's. He was an invited artist at Clapton's Crossroads Festival in '04 and has his own Gibson signature model, so you know this guy's no slouch. Check him out....
