Seminal soul, R&B and blues guitarist/songwriter Johnny “Guitar” Watson recorded live at the legendary Hamburg venue Onkel Pö’s Carnegie Hall in 1976.
On the night Onkel Pö vibrated and pulsated; not only because of the powerful acoustics of the venue but also thanks to the vibrant performance Watson delivered together with his well-arranged “working band”, particularly strong in the brass section. The concert took place shortly after the release of Watson’s album ‘Ain’t That a Bitch’, which saw him move to the forefront of the funk movement and of course, Watson did perform tracks from that album in Hamburg.

However, you can feel that he was not only performing his “I am here to present my new album”-routine; Watson was quite aware that he was playing in front of a well-informed and demanding audience. A public that wanted to be conquered and convinced. Whoever was willing to adhere to these rules had a good chance to succeed at Onkel Pö’s Carnegie Hall.

Personnel: Johnny “Guitar” Watson (guitar, vocals, Peter Martin (trumpet), Tommy Robertson (trombone), Paul Dunmall (saxophone), Gil Noble (piano, synthesizer), Bobby Howard (bass), Emry Thomas (drums)
