A Real Mother For Ya
Johnny Guitar Watson
Trading his blues heritage for a funk-oriented style, the artist reinvented himself on this 1977 project. The title track showcased his wit and a groove that retains its impact decades later.
The album utilizes the polished, high-energy aesthetic of the DJM era. Punchy horn arrangements and a disco-leaning rhythm section create a continuous, flowing sound suitable for both dancing and home listening.
