Jesse Johnson
By All Music Guide
Illinois-born funk/soul guitarist Jesse Johnson began playing guitar when he was 15, honing his chops in local rock bands throughout his teens and early twenties. On a friends recommendation, he moved to Minneapolis, MN, where he became the lead guitarist and a primary songwriter for the citys extraordinairy funk-rock group, the Time. After writing Jungle Love, the groups most memorable and highest-charting single, Johnson signed a solo deal with A&M in 1984 and released Jesse Johnsons Revue the following year. Shockadelica and Every Shade of Love followed, building on the inventive, elaborate sound he forged with the Time. By 1990 the group reformed and issued Pandemonium, which once again showcased his songwriting and guitar skills. The highlights of his solo albums were collected on 2000s Jesse Johnson: The Ultimate Collection.
