Johnny "Guitar" Watson - Funk Beyond The Call Of Duty ( full album)

Tripped-out funk from Johnny – very much in his "I Got To Ta Ta Ya Baby" mode, with the guitar skipping around keyboards in a mellow Bay Area kind of way!
Johnny's gone way way past his bluesy roots here – into a sublime blend of soul and funk that's all crafted with just the right amount of lightly spacey touches.The Watson vocals are totally on the money throughout – sliding into the mix in that seductive way that often has Johnny singing beautifully alongside his guitar.
Having played with the likes of Frank Zappa, Little
Richard, Johnny Otis, Sam Cooke & George Duke, Johnny Guitar Watson certainly can be described as a Soul/Funk Legend. Johnny made his guitar sound ike no other on earth, Jimi Hendrix clearly took note “Those things Jimi was doing, I started that shit” Mr Watson once said. And who are we to argue!!
