ROB SEZ: I've always been bowled over by Johnny's guitar playing and song-writing talent. After reading his autobiography, I was moved to find an excellent live show to share here. For those who think the bloke can't sing, you might want to check the sample. His vocals have improved quite a bit since he started touring intensively some years ago, fronting his own band. In case you haven't noticed, he still writes great songs. Errata: date on artwork is in error (date at top of post is correct) and venue name has a spelling error. Oh well; can't be perfect all the time...
