[@dagmarkunzel5406]

It is 3 o'clock in the night and I cannot sleep. I'm worried for my son, who is a doctor in a hospital and cares for Corona infected people. Now I'm listening to JJ's blues. That distracts me and gives me some peace. Thank you Mr. Justin Johnson for the music.

The saloon door swings open A road weary travelers boot heels thump the silence out of the room as he makes his way to the bar, floor boards creaking with each step There is Whispering at tables as poker games are interrupted Our traveler leans his back on the bar surveying the room for trouble, there seems to be plenty available, his duster falls open revealing two cross draw holsters filled with big irons covered In scrollwork with sandalwood grips... Help me out

[@patrickfoster4586]

Just as the traveler's eyes fall on the card sharp in the dark corner of the room a drunk stumbles in front of the traveler. This temporarily breaks the fierce eye contact between our traveler and the gambler allowing the player time to wipe the sweat from his brow. The traveler quickly looks over the drunk and once again locks eyes with the black suited gambler. It soon becomes evident to all in the room, with the exception of the drunk, that a confrontation has already begun. -Okay, who takes it from here? Cheers! P[>

There is a nervous shuffling of feet, talk has come to an end. The patrons are anxiously looking at the two men while sipping their beer. Thick smoke is still drifting in the air. The drunk still doesn't know what's going on as the people are realizing that there is an unspoken violent history between the two. A scantily clad prostitute grabs the drunk and hurries him outside...

I'm getting goosebumps listening to your music. Delta blues is so enchanting and eerie. I'm also picturing a prison inmate during the 1930's being lead to the gallows in this track as a priest walks beside him, reading his last rites.

[@AJ_Deadshow]

I love how you look down towards the guitar after finishing that last quiet series of licks - serious, contemplative, reflective, and in the same sort of repose as an artist who just finished painting a picture.

[@SpiritBear12]

Ho-Lee-Cow! That was AWESOME! I could feel the hot humid late afternoon, sitting by a lazy river rolling by while cicadas buzz in the trees with kudzu hanging off of every branch barely moving in the still sultry air. I can feel my clothes sticking to me from sweat while It's a bit of a struggle to breathe. But it's peaceful down by the river, so I deal with the uncomfortable sticky air just to watch the current of the water pull at the grass and reeds. I hear it rippling and bubbling by, as I get lost in my own thoughts and the rest of the world drifts away far off in the distance. Truely Magical Mr. Johnson. You Sir, have much talent!

[@joyceshealy5389]

[@TheAworley1978]

I've been working at my desk in my makeshift home office since about 7:00 a.m., distracted by clumps of snow falling off my apple tree and squirrels bounding in the upper branches of my black walnut trees. The kids are just stirring, I hope my wife is still sleeping, overall we are grateful for another day. Thanks for the soundtrack, Justin. God bless.

[@TrikeRoadPoet]

Lost time in the music, wandering amid memories and dreams, what could be and might have been, and not caring which. In these times of stress and fear, the blues straightens out the kinks in your mind, and peace comes like a welcoming lover.
