Popis - 1956-1966 THE SESSION YEARS:
24 recordings featuring guitarist Johnny Jones between 1956 and 1966. Born in 1936 in Tennessee, Johnny taught himself to play guitar and in 1950 moved to Chicago, which was fast becoming the centre of the Blues music world, where he learnt from and shared stages with Muddy Waters and Howlin? Wolf before working regularly with Junior Wells and Freddie King. He then headed back down south to lead an R&B Review before joined The Jimmy Beck Orchestra which was the main in house studio group for the Calvert, Champion and Cherokee labels. On most of these sessions either Jimmy Beck or Johnny Jones were the featured soloists. Johnny was featured on ?Pipe Dreams?, a hit for the Champion label and on ?Nightmare? his funky low string licks sound like they could have been an early influence on Steve Cropper. In the early 1960?s Johnny formed The King Casuals who performed regularly as the house band at the famous Modern Era night club. The band included a young bass player named Billy Cox and when Billy brought his army buddy, Jimi Hendrix along to see the band, Jimi was fascinated by Johnny?s command of the Blues guitar and the two became friends. When Johnny Jones left The King Casuals to form The Imperial Seven, (later called The Beat Boys), Jimi Hendrix replaced Johnny in the band. Johnny and the Imperial Seven became the house band for Bill ?Hoss? Allen?s ?Athens? and ?Hermitage? record labels, as well as the house band for the Nashville television show ?Night Train? in 1964 and 1965. Then rechristened The Beat Boys, became the house band for the legendary American syndicated television show THE !!!! BEAT in 1966. The last two tracks on the CD are two interludes from THE !!!! BEAT.
