Jeremiah Johnson, “Straitjacket” (Ruf Records)- Jeremiah Johnson’s eagerly anticipated follow up to 2016’s critically acclaimed “Blues Heart Attack” finds the talented singer and guitarist joining forces with fellow St.Louis native Mike Zito to create a package which blends personal reflection, inspired musicianship and acute social comment in near perfect proportions. Johnson himself describes the contents of “Straitjacket” as “original American rock’n’blues with southern-fried soul,” as he injects some refreshing passion and immediacy into gems such as “9th and Russell,” “Keep On Sailing” and a fiery revamp of Ten Years After’s “Rock & Roll Music To The World.”
