Johnny also worked briefly with James Cotton as stand in guitarist as well as with Bo Diddley on several gigs during 1989 and 1990. Now based in the UK he is quickly establishing himself here as a master of the blues guitar and fast building a dedicated following throughout the UK and Europe appearing at the Warrington and Nantwich Blues Festivals; and the Colne R & B Festival to name a few, the Colne performance being transmitted live on BBC Radio Lancashire.
