2004 release. A former member of several gospel groups, Johnny Adams' first recordings appeared in 1959 on Ric Records. Three years later he secured a minor R&B success with "A Losing Battle," a slow ballad co-written by New Orleans legend Dr. John. In 1968 he joined Shelby Singleton's SSS International outlet and scored a hit the following year with "Reconsider Me," an inspired piece of country-soul. This compilation, Heart & Soul, includes the best from his Nashville period (late '60s early '70s) --undoubtedly his most compelling work.
