At the age of 91, blues legend Jimmy Johnson has released an amazing new album!　A masterpiece that leaves you with nothing but to take your hat off to his overflowing spirit and energy!

Jimmy Johnson, the brother of that Syl Johnson, has made a career as a famous guitarist of Chicago blues and soul since the 1960s.At the age of 91, he is releasing an astonishing new album on Chicago's prestigious Delmark label.From the funky opening title track and other originals to the heavy shuffle of B.B. King's "I Need You So Bad," which Magic Sam has also covered, Fenton Robinson's classic "Somebody Loan Me a Dime," Percy Mayfield's classic slow blues "Strange Thingsappening," and Bobby Bland's "Lead Me On," which he plays piano on. Percy Mayfield's classic slow blues "Strange Things Happening" and a cover of Bobby Bland's "Lead Me On" with himself on piano.Although it was a reprise, one of the original songs, "My Ring," was performed in a reggae style.Anyway, I'm impressed by their attitude that they are still moving forward.His powerful high tone voice and sharp guitar are so full of vitality that it is hard to believe he is 91 years old.A must listen for all blues fans! I want to say.
