Recent Reviews (Summer 2008 Forever Plaid):
“Smudge also takes the low voice in the quartet harmonies and provides the bass tones for "Sixteen Tons." Smudge is played by Christopher Johnson who also solos on "Rags to Riches" and plays the inimitable Sunday night variety show host, Sullivan. He has a most wonderful comic sensibility, a sober-sided underplayed humor.”
~J. Peter Bergman (Berkshire Bright Focus)
“I also enjoyed the "Sixteen Tons/Chain Gang" medley, with Johnson doing his best Tennessee Ernie Ford impression. Indeed, if there is a standout in this ensemble cast, it's Johnson, whose comic timing is every bit as fine as his voice.”
~BRUCE G. HALLENBECK (The Independent)
“Christopher Johnson was a strong Smudge – Smudge is the bass and Johnson provided wonderful deep tones for the harmony and his solo on Sixteen Tons”
