Johnny's always been one of my favorites. Of course I love his Whisky A Go Go stuff, but if you like Poor Side Of Town, I really recommend that you check out all of the Rewind album. It is one end to the other all great songs. He covered a lot of songs in his career, but no one does 'em like Johnny does. He still performs and does a lot of great guitarin'. And who cares about hall of fames. They are all more problems than they are worth. We all have our own favortites. God's got Johnny's spot in his HOF one day.

What does one do if he knows/and his mates know that what they see and hear is a 70 plus man who is one monstrous music box- the diners with the choices in them, that he would fill everyone ever made, "superlatively" WELL TO ALL WRITERS!!!! HERe IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO WRITE a biography that will ROCK ROCK!! THe king of "sleepers" . Start with this fact. This low key man is worth $150 Million. He did not do that in a vacuum,, he never sold an athletic piece of crap, nor his name- rather he bought belief in himself. But owning your own label is the smartest, gutsiest thing, as the hate comes down on you for actually acting as a capitalist in America- how dare he... the writer would have to open up this mans heart- which i believe is in a tight lock bock, he is the initiate to the Whiskey, and his name someone had enough integrity to list his name first, then landing mccoo, then the new bachrach , namely jimmy webb!! THe book would tellme if for X millions Webb's rights were sold?? Then how did he get the very finest back-ups that one can see at JR's Monterey appearance==Jim Gordon for one played a lot of drums for jr. Did JR pay the SCALE? or did they say to jr- "This one is on us" Recently I have figured his favorite genre was the blues!! notice his jaw muscles going apalaflective plus his body gets into it, and he plays a very righteous lead guitar- in rooster-a whole new vibe happens. anyway Jr it is ok to BRAGG as peole have no clue, and your BRAGG is backed up...
