JOHNNY JENKINS
Johnny Jenkins had a colorful, if relatively unrecognized, impact on two major musical figures of the 1960s: Jimi Hendrix acknowledged his direct influence, while Otis Redding, who worked with Jenkins, made his first Stax recording thanks to him. Jenkins played a rocking Southern brand of soul-blues, leading the proceedings with his gruff voice and upside-down guitar lines that could switch from biting to cajoling on a dime. |
