Mike Johnson is Country Music’s No.1 Black Yodeler.

This 2-disc CD set contains 50 songs, with lyrics co-written by his friend Leo Maimone on “Just a Country Singer.” The Booklet describes each song by the title, the date written, and as a studio recording, live performance, or a solo acoustic session.
