Way Beyond The Call Of Duty!!!
16 Oct 2005
Format:Audio CD
The title track of this album is a true 70's funk classic.It's got it all-great groove,blaring clavinet and horns and Johnny Guitar's yowling vocals.And it just get's better from there as "It's About The Dollar Bill",the brilliant "It's A Damn Shame" and "Barn Door" all deliver the same kind of goods filled with Johnny's good humored style.And for once this CD features bonus cuts that are NOT featured in some other version on the album-the odd vocal groove "Can You Handle It" and the unique "Virgina's Pretty Funky"-a cross between R&B and some wacked out Broadway musical.Just a terrific funk reissue that deserves emmediate addition to your collection

Funking above and beyond the call of duty
6 Oct 2000
Format:Audio CD
Hot on the heels of the success of his previous two albums (they both went gold), Johnny 'Guitar' Watson dropped another 70's funk classic. I'd heard this wasn't as good as the previous two but I'd say its my favourite Johnny 'Guitar' Watson cd so far, there are more grooves on this one and less ballads. Watson wrote , preformed, and produced, this and played all the instruments except for drums and horns. For fans of 70's funk music that want an introduction to one of the genre's lesser known master's, 'Funk Beyond the Call of Duty' is the perfect introduction. After all, this is: FUNK BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY.

tasty! impeccable arrangements, concise perky solos, economy of scale and a witty hip sense of humor.
johnny guitar watson's mastery of his instrument and his material is evident throughout the entire production. this CD is a masterpiece.
