ETTA JAMES - "I got everything from Johnny ... He was my main model ... My whole ballad style comes from my imitating Johnny's style ... He was the baddest and the best ... Johnny Guitar Watson was not just a guitarist: the man was a master musician. He could call out charts; he could write a beautiful melody or a nasty groove at the drop of a hat; he could lay on the harmonies and he could come up with a whole sound. They call Elvis, the King; but the sure-enough king was Johnny 'Guitar' Watson."
