This week’s LOUIE is a LOUIE that’s not the Richard Berry<\/strong> song. There’s a musician in Southern California named Luis Johnston<\/strong> that uses the stage name of “Luie Luie<\/strong>.” He released an album called “Touchy” in 1974 that’s been getting some attention 30+ years later. I’ve had a handful of friends mention this guy to me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThe catchiest song on this album is something called “El Touchy.” Thanks to the wonders of YouTube, you can hear this track free of charge.<\/p>\n

If you’d like learn about Mr. Johnston, and maybe order a copy of his “Touchy” CD, you can visit the Companion Records<\/strong> website at:

There’s even a MySpace page for Mr. Luie Luie Johnston at:

So far, I haven’t seen any official website that provides any type of calendar for his various shows, but I’m assuming he continues to play different venues<\/a> near the Victorville, CA area.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Dangerous Minds<\/a> for the latest reminder of this unique talent!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
