Blues For Life Your place for blues reviews and news.

From the Tennessean

Legendary Nashville blues guitarist Johnny Jones, a mainstay on the city’s Jefferson Street blues scene in the 1960s and a mentor to guitar hero Jimi Hendrix, has died. He was 73.

Carl over on his Juke Joint posted something I was not aware of though, Johnny Jones's influence on a young Jimi Hendrix. Specifically he posted a series of videos Jones did with Gibson about his style, life and of course his Gibson guitars. As much as I had to admit he does a hell of a shill.




For the rest of the videos head on over to Carl's post.
