Review
CD Now
And in 1991, he had good reason. At that point, Guy had not
made a studio album for a decade. The fact that Eric Clapton,
who made sure that Buddy was a regular guest on his Royal
Albert Hall blues nights, had called him the world's greatest
guitarist still had not gained him a recording contract.
Silvertone put that right with sessions that included the best
session men from Britain and America, with guest
appearances by Clapton, Jeff Beck and Mark Knopfler. The
album showed all sides of Guy's talent, the blues singer, the
soul man and the extravagantly gifted guitarist. A reluctant
star, he has nevertheless taken full advantage of his
new-found status as the uncrowned King of Chicago Blues.

All-Music Review Biograph
Legendary piano player Johnnie Johnson isn't exactly a household name, even among followers of blues music. That's because for 28 years, he worked as a sideman to one of rock 'n' roll's most prominent performers, Chuck Berry. Berry joined Johnson's band, the Sir John Trio, on New Year's Eve, 1953, and afterward, Berry took over as the group's songwriter and frontman/guitar player. On the strength of a recommendation from Muddy Waters and an audition, Berry got a deal with Chess Records. Johnson's rhythmic piano playing was a key element in all of Berry's hit singles, a good number of which Johnson arranged. The pair's successful partnership lasted a lot longer than most rock 'n' roll partnerships last these days Johnson was born July 8, 1924, in Fairmont, WV, and he began playing piano at age five, thanks to his mother, who provided the funds to purchase one and encouraged the young Johnson's interest. His parents had a good collection of 78-rpm records, including items by Bessie Smith and Ethel Waters. In his teens, he listened to the radio broadcasts of big bands, and taught himself based on what he heard from the likes of Art Tatum, Earl "Fatha" Hines, and Meade "Lux" Lewis. Johnson's goal in all of this listening and playing in his teenage years was to come up with his own distinctive style. His own somewhat ailing career got a shot in the arm with the Chuck Berry concert film, Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll and by his involvement in Keith Richards's solo release with Richards's band, the X-Pensive Winos. In a 1995 interview, Johnson explains his abilities with piano as his mother did, a gift from God. "I can hear something and keep it in my mind until such point as I can get to a piano, and then I'll play it...that is a gift, the ability to do that." Johnson's albums under his own name include Blue Hand Johnnie for the St. Louis-based Pulsar label in 1988 Johnnie B. Bad in 1991 for the Elektra American Explorer label; That'll Work in 1993 for the same label, and most recently, Johnnie Be Back for the New Jersey-based MusicMasters label in 1995. All four are winners, and all are available on compact disc.

All-Music Guide
The Bon Jovi guitarist goes solo on this recording. Sambora plays songs and styles that otherwise would not fit within the boundaries of Bon Jovi with a heavy blues influence.

Review
Sanborn and cocreator Marcus Miller traipse through the
history of funk and find new juice in old bottles...a funkified,
ear-twisting musical mix in which hip-hop manners meet
Booker T. and James Brown.." - Rating: A-
