Description
An overview of a legendary R&B performer who was one of the biggest R&B performers of the 1950s.
Contains his entire output for Duke Records including 3 R&B number ones and 5 more Top 10 R&B hits including Pledging My Love which spent ten weeks in the top spot.
The perfect way to discover an artist who only ever had one 7 single released in the U.K. and that was 7 years AFTER his death!
The CD also includes two recordings made by other artists in tribute to the singer / songwriter after his accidental death at Christmas 1954.
The booklet contains a detailed look at Johnny Ace's life, his death at his own hands along with scans of reviews, labels and press ads.
