Justin, you are my favorite guitar player ever and I've heard them all; I am 70. Really want to thank you for touching my life with your music. You never disappoint. I am just so happy to have found you. I love the time you take bringing this to all of us. Such an outstanding human being. Much love.

Eleven months ago „@ezradaniel458“ had posted, that „This guy was touched by the hands of GOD“. „His soulexpression takes you to another dimension.“ There is actually nothing more to add to these words of respect. But I would like to add a few words of my own as a tribute to Justin Johnson: I am 67 years old, and, as a music lover, I especially loved the rock- and blues - ballads of the bands in the 60s and 70s. This is where my love for soul- and blues music developed. There were and are many famous blues guitarists, like John Lee Hooker, B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Peter Green, Rory Gallagher, Jimi Hendrix, Gary Moore, Joe Bonamassa, …! But Justin Johnson surpasses them all, because he plays the Blues from his deepest heart and soul. Justin, you have been sent to earth by God, to play your spectacular Delta Blues Guitar, to connect people´s souls together. It seems to me, as if your hands are being guided by angels. Thank You for your incredible and fantastic Blues Guitar Play, that I will love for the rest of my life. God bless You. Kind regards from Stuttgart, Germany.
*No matter what goes on in the world its nice to know we can all agree on one thing, this music is beautiful.*

Джастин ты волшебник гитарных струн
Feels like a score to a David Lynch movie.
Late, one Autumnal night, a ragged and wind blown man, strode, with an air of unnatural confidence, along a dirt track at the edge of the forest, leaves whipping his ankles. Somewhere, deep within that dark and lonesome place, a howl, of curious quality and unusual resonance, began it's eerie journey, between the moonlit twigs and cloud hidden branches, to wrap itself, in an affectionate gesture of recognition and respect, around our stranger with the curious gait, the hearing of which, caused a flicker of something approaching appreciation, to dance, briefly, across his stern, but otherwise, expressionless face.
The man with the thousands guitars
When ever I'm feeling down and need to chill out you are the one I turn to. There is nothing better to bring me to my senses than deep blues. I can' think of anyone that plays them better than you. Thanks!

Amazing bit of escapism. ‘Listening to and looking at the shape of the guitar base and pulse in the first part, I see a wall clock. In another life and metaphor, it's face watching lives from it's place on a wall or walls... The tick-tock is more palpable than a ghost, as exerts a passive influence like the talking table of a ouija, the strings and frets like the symbols as the bottle-neck creates birds of flight...'
There is not enough dark music for how far I want to escape. Thank you tho. Always special to listen to your magical playing.

It hits the spot, big time. I already heard most of these tracks individually but that didn't stop me from listening to the whole thing again with pleasure. First piece I ever heard from you was "Ghost from the Mountain" featured on your "Dark Music Blues to Escape to..." # 1, still one of my favorites up to this day. You Sir are without a doubt one of the most inspirational guitarist and finest Blues-man of our time. Best regards from France. Please be well and keep up your great work, partner.
