I got to see a live show of his all tuba band, Gravity. Real good show. This song with Taj Mahal is what comes to my mind first when I think of him, though

(can’t find a video of the song with both good audio and video of Johnson, so went with good audio)

Agnaldo TimĂłteo, 84 years old, Brazilian singer. Covid19.

He was a torch singer and wasn´t my cup of tea, but He was very popular and loved by the boomer generation.
