Junior Watson Instrumental

[@valcoman]

It just don't get any better than this. Thank you!

[@Fatshead]

the tone of junior's stuff from this era is so "throaty." That and Kaplan's incredibly supportive playing make this a classic.

[@Bornysblues]

Nice!

[@Fatshead]

Junior and Fats were influenced by a lot of the same players, but they developed very different styles. Junior bristles when he gets this question. Only Junior sounds like himself; only Fats sounded like himself. Btw, Fats didn't "change everything." He and the band played rythm & blues and blues classics that were originally released in the 40s and 50s. They just played that style with great skill and a love for the originals.

Fats has (had) the uncanny ability to play precisely the notes my brain wants to hear at exactly the right moment, with the perfect tone. On a good night, Junior usually plays the last thing you expect to hear at any given moment.
