It was 1993 and all indications were that John Campbell was about to become the next big thing in blues-rock after Stevie Ray Vaughn. But just as he was getting his first taste of international success, the bluesman who seemed to effortlessly bridge the styles of Robert Johnson and Howlin' Wolf, with a dash of rock panache, died of a heart attack in his sleep. Leo would've have been a fan if he'd ever come across Campbell's music before he left forever to jam with his rock gods. Tribute to John Campbell / MP3 Interview with John Campbell
