Johnny Adams was an American singer known for his versatile vocal range and unique singing style. Born on January 5, 1932 in New Orleans, Louisiana, he gained fame as a talented R&B, jazz, blues, and gospel artist. Nicknamed "The Tan Canary," Adams captivated audiences with his multi-octave voice and impressive falsetto. His renditions of "Release Me" and "Reconsider Me" became his biggest hits during the late 1960s.

Throughout his career, Johnny Adams showcased his exceptional talent alongside other renowned artists such as *Earl King*, *Ernie K-Doe*, *Eddie Bo*, and many more. He contributed to the rich musical heritage of New Orleans alongside legends like *Art Neville*, *Professor Longhair*, and *Allen Toussaint*. 

Despite his passing on September 14, 1998 at the age of 66 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Johnny Adams' legacy lives on through his timeless music. With a distinctive voice that touched hearts across genres, he remains an influential figure in the world of R&B and soul.

Celebrating Sun Records 70th anniversary, these Johnny Adams tracks have been remixed from the original multitrack tapes for optimal sound quality. The new album tracklist has never been printed on vinyl, inspired by his 1986 South Side of Soul Street. The offering includes his hits “Release Me” and “Reconsider Me” as well as previously unreleased or digitally-unavailable tracks: “Tender Side of Me - Alternate”, “Too Much Pride - Alternate”, and a brand new version of “Give Me A Chance”.
