#158 in the Need To Know Badass Blues Instrumental Series, Hats Off To Jimmy Page, features the industrious and illustrious Justin Johnson on the electric guitar. Now I don't know if he's playing his shovel guitar, his skateboard guitar or any one of his many other hand made creations but he's definitely playin'! Based in Nashville, over the last few years, Justin has become somewhat of an internet phenom. His YouTube channel has close to two million subscribers, he's got a full-on cottage industry goin' with records, merch, and lessons and he still finds time to do sessions like this one. And speaking of this one, I don't think anybody is going to wonder why it's titled as it is. I reached out to Mr. Page for his blessing but got no response so in keeping with the Zeppelin spirit, I will proceed onwards asking for forgiveness later. I already have the alternate title, Cease and Desist, ready to go just in case. Enjoy!
The backing band on this track is Rich Kirch (John Lee Hooker 1984-2001) and Les Izmore on the stereophonic rhythm guitars, Alvino Bennett (Dave Mason, Stevie Wonder) on drums, and myself on bass. The basics were recorded at Skunkworks in Capitola CA. Mellifluously mixed and mastered by the infamous F-Bomb.
