I met Michael in 1968 when Denver, Boise, and Johnson came to Graceland College and performed. That same semester the Duke Ellington Orchestra also played. The recording on the trio performance is slso now on KZitem. I am most grateful to find this interview from our youths.
So wonderful to have these great MJ recordings availasble!

"There Is A Breeze" is one of my most prized possessions. I learned a lot about life and relationships from his songs. I miss him. Rooty TootToot For the Moon.

This was great. The performance segment quality is especially wonderful. It's amazing how at home Michael is with the guitar. It's as if it's part of him.

I really enjoyed this interview. Some great history and much more in depth than anything I’ve heard before. And the three performances are just beautifully delivered, and exceptionally well recorded. Very glad to have this.

Thanks for this. His voice may have diminished toward the end, but not his heart. And always the consummate guitarist.

His presence such a gift, and his absence such a loss

Wow! Beautiful sound and production. MJ the greatest! Guitar aficionado, some pretty difficult finger work to say the least.

The first time I ever heard Blue Than Bluer was when I was having lunch at my neighborhood hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant and the song came on over their radio soundsystem. I looked up at the ceiling and thought, is that Michael Johnson? On the radio?! What the heck?!! The following Monday I went to the club I was doing open-mics at and asked the owner what he knew about this, and he said, yeah, MJ had signed a record deal with EMI. I was exceeding glad for him, that he would be now able to reach a wider audience. Picked up the album pronto, too!

That's great. You knew Michael in his earlier days? What do you recall or what stands out about the early days? I love him so much.

@@BenBigelow3Hello Ben, just seeing this now - so sorry it's been so long since you posted this, my phone never pinged to alert me and I forgot all about my original post - this is what I remember: first, when I was a junior in high school a classmate lent me a newly-released copy of For All You Mad Musicians (recorded 1975 on MJ's own label Sanskrit) and I was hooked. He and Leo Kottke were the principal reason I stuck with the guitar. Anyway, Michael and his performing partner Mark Henley would travel the Midwest doing concerts and I'd catch them when they'd come to town. They both went to Nashville (MJ as a performer, Mark as a songwriter), Michael had a modestly successful career, Mark eventually left the business and became a landscaper. Unfortunately MJ passed in 2017 from COPD; I don't know if Mark is still with us. Now to clarify, this Mark Henley was from Minnesota, not to be confused with a songwriter Mark Henley who hailed from the southeast, either SC or GA.

PS: I didn't know Michael per se, only that he signed an album for me in '77 and I bought a CD from him in '09, both times after concerts. Actually at the latter venue I was waiting to use the bathroom before the show and he popped out!

I got to know Michael in his later years. So gentle, so engaged with his friends, family and neighbors! He really delighted in performing and had a small acoustic booth in his last home.

When Napster came out, the very first song I searched for was Love and Sex. Incredible. I bought your double CD just for that but found the wealth of other great stuff. Awesome.
