Henry Johnson doesn't want any labels put on his music

`Music is an art form that is supposed to move you one way oranother," said Chicago's Henry Johnson. "Labels like jazz and bluesand rock 'n' roll are meaningless. I don't care who's singing orwho's playing. It's either good or it's bad."

Johnson, accused by some jazz purists of being influenced toomuch by his gospel roots, said he doesn't see why musicians have tofollow any one format.

"Critics are entitled to their opinions," he said. "But don'ttell me that what I'm recording is `wrong' because it doesn't fitneatly into one category. I make music to make people happy. And ifI achieve that goal, then I think I'm doing an OK job."
