Possible Copyright Violation
I did a major cleanup and overhaul of the layout of this page to make it wikified. I believe that the musician is a notable musician to include on Wikipedia. However, the original text appears to be exactly copied from the musician's official biography on his web-site:
http://www.gregoryjohnson.com/biography.html. Unless it is the musician who posted this or he approves of it, this may be a copyright violation and needs to be assessed. --

Thanks you for doing the cleanup and making it wikified.
I am the musician Gregory B. Johnson and I wrote the biography on my web site. I also submitted it to Wikipedia. This is in my words and my story and my life.--
