A Good CD, But NOT Luther Johnson!

(4 out of 5 stars)
"This retrospective CD offers some insight to the development of a guitarist who has become very popular on the festival circuit and elsewhere over the past few years. I enjoyed the CD tremendously, but it is NOT Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson. This CD is by Lonnie Brooks, at one time called himself Guitar Junior, but changed when he relocated to Chicago and found out about Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson. Read through the extensive liner notes to find out the story about one Lee Baker, who called himself Guitar Junior in Louisiana, but changed his name to Lonnie Brooks shortly after his arrival in Chicago.Lonnie Brooks fans will enjoy this CD, Luther Johnson fans will be disappointed if they expect to hear the venerable Mr. Johnson."
