Description
Revered singer Johnny Bragg wrote and recorded classic 1950s R&B hits, such as Just Walkin in the Rain (as lead vocalist of the Prisonaires) and Rollin Stone (fronting the Marigolds), while serving time at the Tennessee State Penitentiary. For years, the recordings collected here lay dormant and unheard in a garden shed in Nashville.
Unearthed and assembled to coincide with the twentieth anniversary of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museums acclaimed exhibit Night Train to Nashville: Music City Rhythm & Blues, these cuts are a rich trove encompassing previously unreleased songwriting demos, band rehearsals, and live recordings that, fortunately, Bragg preserved on tape in the 1960s and 1970s. Its a time capsule of classic Nashville R&B, now available for the first time in any format, exclusively for RSD Black Friday.
