Cliff Johnson & SleepWalkers Live @ 中法夏至音乐日
当我们出于广而告之的需要，在公众号推文和微信群里给Cliff戴上“布鲁斯老炮”的帽子，Cliff看到后表达了他的不满：
When advised his gig as a "Blues One Man Show", Cliff complaind about that:
“Very little blues, maybe 2-3 songs have blues form. The rest are simply songs. Totally not a blues one man show. Having elements of the blues, but not, absolutely not 'the blues'.”
好吧，我之所以会这么形容他的音乐，只是因为我看过他在The SleepWalkers乐队的现场演出，确实有出彩的布鲁斯桥段，但自从看了Cliff在「自由声场·淘金店」的个人演出，确实又包含了很多民谣、流行、乡村、放克、摇滚的元素。如果非要将他形容成一种流派，那就只能称之为Cliff Johnson的流派。
His live in FreeField mixs lots of music genre, like Blues, Folk, Pop, Country, Funky, Rock etc. So, his style is really just called Cliff Johnson.
管他是什么风格，今晚来听Cliff的演出吧！
So, just come to enjoy Cliff's live tonight in Free Field Beer Cafe.
