Long has the uncanny ability to create original material that sounds as if it came from a long lost cache of vintage recordings by one of the classic bluesmen - It's music completely unique and new, while at the same time hauntingly familiar. John Hammond remarks that "Johnny Long is worthy of international attention and this record is long overdue for an artist of this caliber - "Lost & Found" demonstrates that this player is ready to be heard." Long's blues exemplifies the roots of American music.
