= Luie Luie = Born in Victorville, CA, Luis Johnston, better known by his stage name, "Luie Luie," is a Southern Californian screenwriter, painter, and musician. During the 1970s, Johnston released several 45s of music including his self-funded and only LP Record titled, "El Touchy," in 1974.

The liner notes of his singular LP states:

''A Master Musician, LUIE LUIE will make you come -- and glad you came. A Superb Showman, he will caress you. He will force your feet to fidget and seduce your silent hands. His beat will bow your head.... This tall Music Matador oozes his music from ten fingers, two feet, two knees, his mouth, and a thousand brains, and in this all inclusive posture combination of mind and body and muscle and spirit, overwhelms the strong, the meek, regardless of age, sex or religious relationships.

Find this record!''

Johnston was a multi-instrumentalist who wrote and played all of his own music, often in bars and clubs as a live act. The majority of Johnston's musical career was performed in complete obscurity, but his LP "El Touchy" would later be officially re-issued by Companion Records in 2008. More recently, Johnston continues his work as a painter, screenwriter, and nightclub entertainer.
