When I saw JGW live, must have been around the time this show was recorded, I noticed that the keyboard player was blind and doubled Johnny on vocals. The similarity of the voices was astonishing... so, maybe that's why some of you think it is not Johnny... man, how sad he's passed away.
I think I met Johnny in Monterrey CA in the mid 90's. He was playing at a small bar. Don't remember much about the music but I do remember that he was playing an accordion. Can anyone confirm this for me??????
i AGREE A FAKE....jOHNNY RECORDED WITH ME IN 70S AT FANTASY STUDIOS, AND IN HANGIN OUT WITH HIM FOR TWO WEEKS,YOU GET TO KNOW A PERSON...THATS NOT HIM
I thought Ohne Filter was a music club.. have seen a lot of vids that were done there...and having said that. we are so lucky to've seen these vids. I have some of his work on vinyl, but it ain't the same!!
Here I am again..Tovia on drums! This is the one and only!! This is the beginning of concerts to his comeback after 10years or better out of the mainstream. Google in "tovia on drums/johnny guitar watson" and see the new release that I had the honor of recording on the album that he never got a chanace to release. I got 7 more in the cooker to let fly!! I will personally kick up some new dirt in JGW name!!
This guy is an imposter. He might sound like Johnny "Guitar" Watson slightly but he does not look like him other than his height and body build. The man is a FAKE!!! You can fool some people but not me. He doesn't really sound like him, he missed a lot of notes and he is just not Johnny "Guitar" Watson. Shame on you FAKE!!!

Well you all got me curious now. Because he sort of doesn't look him himself in this video, unless he got his teeth fixed, etc. But it sounds like him. There was a time when people posing as artists saying they were someone else and getting jobs. I can't say on this for sure. But if this is an Imposter, he is a pretty damb good one. Also if This isn't Johnny, This guy can't get away with saying he's Johnny anymore. An't that a bitch! ha ha!
I guess the big sign behind him that says"Johnny'Guitar'Watson" is lying....not to mention the fact that it's all his band members from other videos and the fact he sounds and plays exactly like JGW...WOW,what a coincidence.
If U listen CLOSELY!! He's not even singing the DAm record is on. Hell he doesn't even look like him. It's Tribute act!! U ever heard of one those? I guess not....
Johnny didn't have a mustache for staters at no time in his life! Plus his front teeth were crown gold. U don't know alot about a Johnny Guitar Watson huh? I didn't think so....
I'll second that.....Uniquely, Johnny Guitar Watson pulled it all together - Blues, Soul, Jazz and Funk, and this it with taste, humour and charisma - not to mention musicianship. One of the most under-rated people in popular music. Ibae Johnny Guitar Watson, RIP. You are missed.
There are those who may not know that Johnny had recorded some great blues and jazz albums, before he hit pay dirt in soul and funk. Go back and put your ear to some of his early recordings. I do love this song. Johnny's music was always tight and his guitar playing was impecable. That means the man had capital S.O.U.L.
Wow.

It wasn't. It was SWR (german TV) in Baden-Baden, Germany. Live, but in a TV-Studio. So, not too good live-atmosphere.
