OSW: Johnnie Walker, Jr. Tribute
Just after I put the last OSW mix up, I found out about Johnnie Wilder, Jr.’s untimely passing.
He was 56. What better way than to take time out this Wednesday to pay tribute to the man….

While most of these songs speak for themselves, there are tunes that keep the groove and are rarely heard such as Send Out For Sunshine and great tracks from the album Hot Property, such as One Night Tan, Razzle Dazzle, and Raise and Blaze. I would be remiss if I didn’t also feature tracks from the album Candles, like Turn Around, Posin’ Till Closin’, and the illustrious Where Did I Go Wrong?
It should also be noted that two of the more popular tracks often heard on Quiet Storm on a regular basis back in the day were written by Johnnie Wilder himself: Mind Blowing Decisions and Happiness Togetherness.

Enjoy!
