He was an amazing artist that had a natural command of his instrument. I was priveledged to see him play twice in person, and have enjoyed his recorded material for many years. It is sad to realize how many people of a wide span of ages don't even know who he is.
Few artists desrve the title "One of the Greats". Johnny earned that title.
He has left us great music. I will never forget him or his music.
i never got too much into the white bloozrock thing--too many technically proficient gunslingers w/o the soul of their influences. jw, however, really did have the feel--he's the one guy who could make done-to death old songs sound fresh. + highway 61 is the best ever dylan cover.
