Review

Mojo (Publisher) (p.119) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[W]ith A REAL MOTHER...he had found a winning, signature balance between R&B smoothness and gritty groove."

Title Note

Personnel: Johnny "Guitar" Wilson (vocals, guitar, Fender Rhodes organ, synthesizer, bass); Knud Jensen (saxophone); Walt Fowler (trumpet); Tommy Roberson (trombone); Emery Thomas (drums).

Recorded at Paramont Recording Studios, Hollywood, California.

Personnel include: Johnny "Guitar" Watson (vocals, guitars, Fender Rhodes piano, Hammond b-3 organ, synthesizer, Moog synthesizer, voice box); Knud Jensen (saxophone); Walt Fowler (trumpet); Tommy Roberson (trombone); Emry Thomas (drums).

Recording information: 1977.

A staple in the 1970s pop and R&B charts, Johnny "Guitar" Watson blended hot funk and jazz with old-school showmanship in a combination that was both disco- and radio-friendly. The risqu‚ title track is prototypical Watson, with stinging guitar interjections between a streetwise hipster vocal over a down-and-dirty rhythm, and the rest of the album, particularly the Peter Frampton-style, vocoder-laden "Your Love Is My Love," is a similar period delight, upholstered with deluxe horns, electric piano, and organ with not a synthesizer or digital keyboard in sight.
