Happy Birthday #90 to Jimmy Johnson, one of the all-time great Chicago bluesmen.

The song below features Billy Branch on harp.

Happy Birthday Jimmy! Thought I'd throw this one in since it includes the new (Mud Morganfield), the old (Jimmy), and the recently passed (Eddy). Jimmy's playing was always great and usually under-recognized going back to at least my first hearing him in the 1960's in Chicago. And he comes from an amazing musical family - soul artist Syl Johnson and Magic Sam bassist, the late Mack Thompson - his brothers.
