Description: A singer/guitarist known for two essential albums in the funk sphere - 'Ain't That a Bitch' and 'A Real Mother For You' - Johnny Watson was first of all a highly respected bluesman with close ties to the R&B scene of the fifties. When Johnny Watson's grandfather died, he left his grandson a guitar, but Grandma insisted that Johnny shouldn't ever play 'the devil's music' - the blues - on such a 'holy' instrument that had accompanied so many gospels. Johnny at once thought about nothing else. In Los Angeles he would spend the fifties under the influence of Amos Milburn and Chuck Higgins, with whom he played for a time before creating his own group to trawl through every club in the city.
