The music of Eric Johnson has defied easy classification for more than four decades. Along the way, he has won a Grammy award, induction into the Guitar Gallery of Greats, and a place on “the 100 Greatest Guitarists of the 20th Century” by Musician magazine. In his hometown of Austin, Texas, a city that knows something about music, readers of the Austin Chronicle have voted him the city’s “Best Electric Guitarist” and “Best Acoustic Guitarist” year after year. Just to be sure the point was made, they also named him “Electric Guitarist of the Decade” and one of the top five “Musicians of the Decade.”
