Great! :)

And the clothes don't get any better than that either... Love the sound of that drummer's kit and him and the bass player are really on the money!

Worth remembering that he was around for quite a while and the stuff posted so far is long after he'd already made his name as a Rhythm & Blues artist (lost it again maybe? I don't know) and was making a comeback in a different direction. Here's some earlier stuff.

Can't remember if this was in Pete's 'Funk and Groove' thread but, anyway, this is another of my fave JGW tracks:



As the JGW fans will probably already know, Frank Zappa was a big fan of Watson and got him to contribute to his 'One Size Fits All' album on the track 'Andy'.
(I couldn't find any original versions of this online; maybe try Spotify. There's a great version by Zappa Plays Zappa though).
