Johnny Diesel And The Injectors - Johnny Diesel & The Injectors

Advantages: He is Johnny Cash
Disadvantages: I am not Johnny Cash

...The fact that Johnny Cash does not yet have his own category on Ciao is shameful and they should hang their heads in shame until they rectify this. One of my ambitions as a Kid was to walk on a stage and say “Hello I’m Johnny Cash”; I fulfilled this ambition but, as a I launched into a unique Karaoke Version of A Boy Named Sue. The bloke doing the Karaoke told me later that he had never quite witnessed anything like my quite performance. It was at this point I realised that I would never be Johnny Cash. Bono out of U2 once said that “Every man knows that they are a sissy compared to Johnny Cash” this is true, but it is also true that Bono is a pretentious twonk, who makes uninspiring music. Johnny Cash on the other hand made totally inspiring music, I always imagined that god sounds a bit like Johnny Cash, but god speaks in Hebrew... Read review

...I finished writing a review about another Johnny Cash CD I recently bought & I thought I should move on to the CD which will probably appeal more widely than the Duets CD. I started this review back in September and now it has finally come to it's conclusion!

Advantages: Great blues!
Disadvantages: None. Whatsoever.

...I have to admit I found Johnny Winter totally by chance. I was in a record shop and saw a CD in a round, metal case. "Johnny Winter? The Texas Tornado? I'll buy that!" So I did. What I found was a musician, Johnny Winter, who is a hard rocking bluesman of consummate skill. Johnny Winter is such a accomplished bluesman that I have to admit that it came as something of a shock to discover that Johnny Winter is a white Texan. Though he reveals that he hung out in the black part of his hometown in Texas, such was his fever for the blues. And, Winter maintains that it was his sincerity about his passion for the blues that meant that he was safe there. Even though Beaumont had not long before suffered form some terrible racially-inspired riots. Winter's blue's sound as if they were recorded in the 1940s or 1950s. Actually, I... Read review
