Mr. Johnson, When I listen to you play w/eyes closed I'm right there in the pocket the whole way young man. But five yrs. ago I coded out TWICE (79 min. total) while receiving an 8-Way Bypass. Now my left hand speaks French Canadian and the right Sudwesterdeutsch. Is there a way, someway, anyway for them to communicate w/each other again? Point of Note; I played all my life upside down and backwards... I also never read sheet music, if I heard something once I could alway's just play it. My grandfather's Martin D-45 could sure use some love again!!! Much Love, God Bless.

[@johnmorax7436]

I play guitar. This dude plays guitar also. I feel like a kid in his card board airplane watching a starship crossing the sky. Yeah.. that's about right.

[@glynnisthomas9165]

Cool description. Greatness inspires greatness. I wonder who Justin Johnson would say is his starship commander?

[@ClerkinTFentch]

You're a poet my friend.... thanks

--- Jimmy is making deliveries. A plume of dust rises barely above the trees behind the big black Dodge. He's speeding but not dangerously so. "Don't drive so dang fast!" grandpappy used to admonish him. "T'aint no room in 'dis business for showoffs! Jus' git yerself killed and wash the road with 'shine". Jimmy lets off the power, slowing precisely for his next stop. Grandpappy would've liked Jimmy's ride. It's fast, easy, and quiet. Just the sound of gravel crunching as he slows and turns off the road into the forest. --- OK sorry I am not from the south and the only thing I actually know about running 'shine is from watching 'dem Dukes when I was 12.

I learn so much from simply watching you play can't express how much you've influenced my blues playing

Me too

[@isreallong3824]

Boys got the meanest bass thumb ive ever seen or heard

[@LoneWolf-McWeed]

Haven’t watched this for about 5 months now but this song gives you that sense of invincibility like someday the mountain might get you, but the law never will. It’s infectious, it’s fizzy like ginger ale and it makes me wish I could play slide like that. DAMN SON!!! 🔥

[@joyceshealy5389]

Crazy about Justin. Nobody better!!

[@joyceshealy5389]

He'd give Jerry Reed a heart attack!

Living in India where most only listen to Indian music, a handful of people to metal and a vast majority to hiphop, rap and pop, I am happy I am one among the few who likes Justin Johnson, the blues and traditional Country. So proud of myself! Thanks Justin!

When I was a kid my mom took me to blues and jazz concerts that happened over several days once a year in Donaueschingen, Germany. I saw many blues greats, and jazz legends but this dude's finger pickin and slidin is just a cut above. always a pleasure @Justin Johnosn

[@l.a.2646]

Justin , I don't know if you'll see this but, I wanted to thank you for your excellent guitar playing especially with the resonator Dobrow, when I was a lad , my dad played his dobrow every day - my family all played usually mountain ( Hillbilly music) with family. he was a WW2 combat veteran and he died when I was 17 so I miss him very much. those notes coming out of that same guitar takes me back to those good old days. thank you Justin for making that old National sing her songs!

[@ericingram7446]

Thank the good Lord that people who are talented, and Justin clearly is, are possessed enough to learn and share their talent.

[@QuistJam]

YEAH! Soundin killer Justin

[@cws-en4ii]

Every time I tell someone about Justin I simply tell them “you can’t believe how good he is” and this proves it. AMAZING !! Keep em coming

[@joyceshealy5389]

I put Justin all over fb...for the ones who don't know!

[@andreworth4839]

There is no one like you, I appreciate the music you put on youtube very much. Seriously, the best guitar work IMO

[@airtime1382]

Every time you play the instrument sounds like it’s telling a story. It speaks from your Sole. Always!

[@d.vincent6190]

Yep, no need for singing when the guitar does all the talking.

[@alleycat-145]

Justin. I gotta tell ya. At 71 years young I've heard alot of guitar players. Many many awesome players. However, never in my life has the playing of the guitar, and in the style you play, touched my soul the way your playing does. Your playing strums the chords of my heart, and plucks the strings of my emotions. Sincerely. Thank you for that. And may you walk your path in peace and harmony. 😁.

[@CT-oe1ry]

As a forever struggling beginner, these are the musicians who have an influence well and far beyond just giving birth to masterpieces!! Thanks Justin.

[@johnh7899]

Man, I cannot tell you how much I dig your style. If you posted a video without showing your face, or your epic backgrounds, or any of your rings, I would still recognize that fingerpick style. Exactly what I’m striving for.

[@LilLancier03]

Any chance we could get directions to the crossroads you went to? Purely for scientific purposes, of course~

[@budirwin9825]

I went down to the crossroads just to catch a ride...

[@brianwoodward4855]

I had to think about Robert too, and Willie. Don't look at him when he tunes the guitar and plays you a song, just take the guitar back and play. Make sure its midnight in the moonlight, or he ain't gonna show. ;)

[@TheMrdhyde]

A man can be taught to play guitar such as myself. However, some such as Justin are simply born to play the strings. They have abilities that cannot be taught.

[@hafsaouiaymen6766]

My friend Justin, he already kicking...and he’s CRACKED at guitar my guy

I liked the lighting in this video, there were a lot of soft shadows that made the music more natural and alive.

AWESOME. JUST AWESOME! I could listen to this all day. Thank you for sharing this with the KZbin world.

[@svetlanabozovic3374]

My son is 3 and he was jumping all over the couch listening to this. Now I know how to burn his energy. Great flow and very catchy :)

In my dreams I play music that sounds like this. When I wake up, I can never get it to sound the same. I am a Bard and the Daughter of a Bard. I bow to the Master. You are the very best I have ever heard.

[@unclestone8406]

My brain is summoning up Jerry Reed and Burt Reynolds in the "White Lightning/Gator" films tearing up and down backcountry in snarling V8 runners. Love how perfect this sound is, man.

[@hickoryham2725]

This is incredible. You single handily got me into slide blues after I saw one of your videos 5 months ago. Haven’t missed an upload since. In this craziness, it’s nice to know I’m still getting my slide blues from the man himself. Thank you.

[@nissi.k]

Just to let you know not because I want to try impress you or anyone else but I’ve been here for a few years now when you only posted a few videos! You just keep going non stop these days and you make it look so easy. You are not only a very incredible musician/composer but you are also an innovator of instruments and modifications! I’m not done! Okay so you are a sound engineer, equipment master, instructor, presenter, sample tester, entrepreneur, and so much more! You are authentic, kind, patient and generous of soul! I do not show who I subscribed to so I may not seem at all familiar. That’s okay but I want you to know that I’ve have been listening to and sharing you videos on many online platforms. Keep it up and stay safe! You really rock at being you.🌟 Blessing to you and all! love nissi
