An Honor
by AxeManStretchI had the opportunity to share the stage with this guy in San Diego. As most of us know, San Diego endured some nasty wildfires in October of '07. College Radio decided to put on a befefit show at a popular venue. I was in one of the five featured bands on the bill, as was Jesse Johnson. I had never heard of him, but after watching his set, I know I will never forget him. Absolute honor to play on the same stage with him. Incredible artist and wordsmith.
Good Talent
by Adeli3315A few months ago, I attended an off-Broadway show in New York City, and three guitarists performed beforehand. The first two guitarists - and the show for that matter - aren’t worth a mention, but the third performer definitely is. He came on stage with his guitar, a buddy on bass, and confidence. I didn’t buy his CD at the time, but after the show, the bartender was playing it. I listened for a while and thought, “I like this guy a lot more now.”
That guitarist was Jesse Johnson. Listening to his CD now, I can hear and feel his soulfulness once again. Cause and Effect is a well-crafted album; every song is worth repeated listens. This guy is funky. He can sing as sweetly and can play guitar and keys as well as those who have inspired him – Prince, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Benet.
“Fine,” “Spread the Love” and “Blue” give this album a very strong start. Johnson mixes R&B, rock, and funk seamlessly. “Blue” is the funkiest of the trio with extra bass guitar.
“You and Me” slows things down a bit. Begging for a second chance without any sappy lyrics, his falsetto voice – lead and background - is quite effective here. “Higher” and “Thank You” are also on the R&B, slower side of the spectrum. “Gone” and “Empty” are other tunes that stand out on Cause and Effect.
Except for a guest pianist on “Gone,” Johnson was the sole musician and vocalist on this album – a one-man show, like his idol, Prince. As producer, arranger, and composer of Cause and Effect Johnson does an extraordinary job on this debut. A promising career is hopefully in the future for this young man of numerous talents.
Next Big Star!
by ltj22This guy rocks! If you think the album is good you should see him live! I heard he played every instrument on the album.
