Jesse Johnson

Illinois-born funk/soul guitarist Jesse Johnson began playing guitar when he was 15, honing his chops in regional rock bands throughout his young adults and early twenties. On the friend’s suggestion, he transferred to Minneapolis, Minnesota, where he became the business lead guitarist along with a principal songwriter for the city’s outstanding funk-rock group, enough time. After composing “Jungle Like,” the group’s most remarkable and highest-charting one, Johnson agreed upon a solo cope with A&M in 1984 and released Jesse Johnson’s Revue the next calendar year. Shockadelica and Every Tone of Love implemented, building over the inventive, complex audio he forged with enough time. By 1990 the group got re-formed and released Pandemonium, which once more showcased his songwriting and acoustic guitar skills. The shows of his single albums were gathered on 2000’s Jesse Johnson: THE BEST Collection.
