Eric Johnson
Live From Austin TX
The Story
Guitar wizard Eric Johnson's 1988 performance on Austin City Limits is finally available on CD - "Live From Austin TX". Terry Lickona, producer of Austin City Limits writes, "Fasten your seatbelts for an extraordinary ride with guitar hero Eric Johnson. This is the album that fellow guitarists, wannabes and fans have been waiting and dying for since the show first aired in 1989. And for good reason: Johnson's playing has a way of connecting to fans of every guitar style while still eliciting raves from the likes of Carlos Santana Johnny Winter and even country music legend Chet Atkins. His inspirations are the "3J's" - Jimi Hendrix, Jerry Reed and Jeff Beck, but his style ranges wide and free throughout the entirety of guitar history while still infusing fresh ideas of his own. "Guitar genius" is an easy phrase to throw around, but when it comes to blending fire and finesse, Eric Johnson has it all."
