Another superb Soul artist who recorded this his only album produced by legend Willie Mitchell at his Hi studios in Memphis. Johnny was born in Alabama in 1939 and is known to Northen & Deep soul fans for his excellent 45,s cut on Okeh & Strike (as Johnny R). His "Gone But Not Forgotten" was featrued on one of the Rare Northern Soul albums,a killer dancer! His 2 Northern classic dancers are featured with Willie Mitchell on sax..Brilliant!....Such a shame he did not record more albums as this really is a pure SOUL faultless gem! Strange that a southern bred singer recorded all his material in the north of USA apart from this pearl. Not to be confused with Prince Johnny Robinson on Andee.
