Oh My, no no. This is like loosing a frien'. Justin was a true pioneer in more ways than one. He was one of the first along with Brother Dave Gardner to bring out comedy records. The later he cleaned up with the cooking shows. Not many of us folks would watch Julia Child or Graham Kerr, but we'd sure as Hell watch Justin and drool all the way through his thirty minutes, and laugh at his stories even if we heard it all before.

My wife and her family knew Justin and he was a true Southern Gentleman and never a put on. In other words he was jes' folks. He could also be called the Firsr Ambasador of Arcadia. Millions of Americans would have never known a Cajon if it wasnt for Mr. Wilson. Later today, I think I'll drink a pearl pop witht he foam on top in his honor. God bless his soul.

Brother Dave Gardner! Now THAT'S a name I ain't heard in a LONG time!

My dad used to have all HIS records, and we'd listen to him pontificate about Elvis and Billy Craham, and so on. Pretty funny stuff.
