      There's a lot more to JT than just his hits. He had some great stuff in the sixties. Just check out the full album titled "Who's Making Love" and you'll see what I mean. He made music for your soul, good or bad, happy or sad.

    A lot of people don’t even know he is the first ever to have a platinum record (disco lady).

    Lyrics to Last Two Dollars:
    “A lady at the casino
    She lost all of her money
    She said don't feel sorry for me, no
    Don't feel sorry honey
    But if you want to do a lady a favor
    Here's what I want you to do
    Just loan me two dollars
    Until the next time I see you
    But these last two dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    These last two dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    One's going for my bus fare
    Other one for the jukebox
    To hear me some blues
    To hear me some blues
    She said I wouldn't be over here
    If my man had been treating me right
    I came here to try to catch him, yeah
    'Cause he's been sneaking around every night
    But I got caught up over here
    Got caught up in this scene
    And put all of my money
    In that doggone gambling machine
    But these last two dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    These last two dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    One's going for my bus fare
    Other one for the jukebox
    To hear me some blues
    (Last two dollars)
    (Not gonna lose)
    (Last two dollars)
    (Not gonna lose)
    (Bus fare)
    (Jukebox)
    (Hear me some blues)
    Lady at the casino
    Lost all of her money yeah
    She said don't feel sorry
    Don't feel sorry honey
    If you want to do a lady a favor
    Here's what I want you to do
    Just loan me 2 dollars
    Until the next time I see you
    But these last 2 dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    These last 2 dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    One's for my bus fare
    Other one for the jukebox
    To hear me some blues ...oh yea
    These last 2 dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    These last 2 dollars (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    I've learned my lesson and now baby
    I wanna hear some blues
    Alright now
    These last 2 dollars ...naw (last two dollars)
    I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    These last 2 dollars (last two dollars)
    I sho aint gone lose (not gonna lose)
    Got one for my bus fare
    Other one for the jukebox
    I gotta hear me some blues
    Yea yea i think i said that again
    These last two dollars (last two dollars)
    Im not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    These last two dollars (last two dollars)
    I sho aint gonna lose (not gonna lose)
    One goes for the bus fare
    Other one for the jukebox
    I gotta hear me some down home blues”

    It is obvious not to many people have heard of johnny T. He was not just a R&B singer. Mr. T was an explorer in the music industry. This is just one song whenever we get together with the family down in Mississippi we don't let get away. Thanks

    Hey guys..Here's a treat...Joni Michell when she joined up with Charlie Mingus before he passed...RIP...Well she is touted as the most prolific songwriter of our time...In this classic she meets " The Dry Cleaner from DesMoines". The album is a true classic as is everything Joni does....give it a listen...you will be surprised as she weaves comedy into a very serious subject...Honestly Joni never disappoints....

    He and this Johnny Taylor sound very similar. Robert Cray plays blues guitar very well.

    Well, I see your getting into Johnny Taylor. “Last 2 Dollars.” When he got into the “Blues.” I can listen to this music. But, I prefer his, “Running Out Of Lies,” “Stop Doggin’ Me,” & “I Believe In You, You Believe In Me!!!”

      Buddy Guy is the REAL DEAL. "Damn Right I Got The Blues," "Feels Like Rain," "Mary Had a Little Lamb," ... also, Otis Rush could sing circles around Mr. Taylor, i.e., "A Fool For You," "Ain't Enough Comin' In," ... I mean no aspersions against Mr. Taylor.
