You will like this! Mike Johnson with Gene Farewell Party...

Post by David Hartley »

Hi all.
John Russell has just got back from Nashville.
He sent me this link to a video he just put on YouTube. It's an iPhone recording but not bad at all. I think you will all like MJ's lead break in Farewell Party...

Mike Johnson

Post by John A. Russell »

Hey David

I have sat beside or near to Mike Johnson on so many occasions.
He plays steel with his hands feet, knees, mind and his whole body. He becomes totally part of what's going on.

All he has is his Emmons, Blackbox and 400. Oh and another stop box he uses to prop up his amp :)

The rest, is Mike.

I spoke to Gene at Billy Yates Countriest Of Country Show. He said he's over in the UK soon and to tell folks to come and see him.

David, I'll come by and play you other videos I took of Mike, Rhonda Vincent and others.
