Ghanaian Afro-Rock from German producer/composer JJ Whitefield, inspired by his Karl Hector & The Malcouns and Whitefield Brothers projects. Fans of Zamrock, Ebo Taylor, Khruangbin and William Onyeabor will find joy in Johnny!’s hypnotic grooves.

JJ Whitefield, who in the early ‘90s revived the gritty, analogue Funk sounds of the ‘60s and ‘70s with his Poets Of Rhythm, has been working with Now-Again Records for over decade, releasing a flock of acclaimed projects with Karl Hector & The Malcouns, Whitefield Brothers, Rodinia and the Original Raw Soul anthology. He first started exploring African rhythms with the Whitefield Brothers in the late ‘90s, continuing in the ‘00s with Karl Hector & The Malcouns. He’s been instrumental in launching Ghanaian Afro Beat/Funk legend Ebo Taylor´s international career, decades after the maestro recorded the landmark albums that have inspired thousands. Whitefield recorded two new studio albums with Taylor and toured in his band between 2009 and 2013, where he met Taylor’s son Henry and percussionist/Singer Eric Owusu. The trio now front the Johnny! band and find inspiration not only in Ghana’s hypnotic grooves, but also the full frontal fuzz guitar assault heard on the legion of 70s Zambian Zamrock albums reissued by Now-Again. Indeed, Whitefield credits his tours with Zamrock godfathers Rikki Ililonga and WITCH’s Jagari Chanda as instrumental in creating the Johnny’s sonic backdrop. The band is rounded out by Turkish drummer Bernd Oezsevim (Woima Collective, Rodinia) and Indonesian bassist/multi instrumentalist Tomi Simatupang (Whitefield Brothers). This is what was oft-called “Afro Rock” at the core, with the possibilities to stretch out into swinging highlife, sweet soul or psychedelia . The results, point at a new direction for the music inspired by the Great Continent. One that takes a direction once mocked as derivative and asserts its importance on the globe’s current musical stage.

Very comfy
Size: X-Large, Color: White
I'm a size US Mens 14 with huge calves. Finding comfortable crew socks can be somewhat difficult. These are extremely comfortable, very stretchy and soft. Very worth the price.

I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling and walking ( exercising )
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
5.7.2019 Update: I have probably five packs of 3 of these socks. Can't explain it but recent pairs I've been using have lasted longer than previous two packs ( 6 socks )... So I'm going to get some more... They are my #1 go to sock for cycling, hiking, climbing, walking ( serious, training, speed, distance )... 10.30.19: I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling anqd walking ( exeqrcising )... They are light, comfortable, keep feet dry, cool & comfortable... They don't shift around on feet. They stay put once put on and running, climbing or cycling shoes are put on and laced up or ratched... I do a lot of hill climbing and also use on terrain where there's lots of long periods ( hours ) going up & hours going down... They don't appear to be very durable, get holes in toe or holes in heels, but 3 pack is relatively inexpensive so I continue to buy them. I do not use them for everyday casual wear because they would wear out very quickly compared to other similar sockets...

These socks are just OK. One arrived with a hole (easily sewn up, but kind of bummed about that). I prefer the Under Armour Resistor socks - they have support built into the socks that you actually can feel, and they were same price for 6 pairs!
