Johnny Clyde Copeland (shown here in Germany playing “Devil’s Hand”) was one-of-a-kind bluesman: a really powerful singer, always with his own great stuff, and an unbeatable live performer, one of the hardest working men in the biz. Note his trademark boxing-like ways when he does one of his down-to-earth guitar solos: he really would set any place on fire with that!
Johnny made many TV shows in Europe in the 1980s, so hopefully some utube blues fans could bring us some other fragments of them.
This masterful Texas bluesman, who literally gave his heart out to the music, really deserves to live on the Net forever.
