Review by paul goss

The album Lone Ranger by Johnny Guitar Watson is a masterpiece of funk and blues. The third-person review of the album highlights the unique style and sound of the legendary artist.

The album features nine tracks that showcase Watson's exceptional guitar skills and soulful vocals. The opening track "I Need It" sets the tone for the rest of the album with its catchy guitar riffs and infectious rhythm. The title track "Lone Ranger" is a standout with its groovy bassline and Watson's signature guitar playing.

Watson's ability to blend various genres is evident in tracks like "Gangster of Love" and "Superman Lover," which feature elements of funk, blues, and R&B. The album also includes slower ballads like "Won't You Forgive Me Baby" and "Since I Met You Baby," which highlight Watson's emotive vocals.
