Undoubtedly Johnny Rawls is a survivor of those years where soul shone in its full glory and was part of the favourite music of white and black young people, which were the golden years of Tamla and Stax sound Nominated several times to different awards and winner in 2012 of Blues Music Awards as ‘Best Soul Artist’, with this new album Johnny Rawls confirms he continues to be gifted with an enviable vocal health and, as usual, he gives the best of himself in a bunch of appetizing compositions especially devoted to all those fans of that particular style where Rawls still appears as one of its highest representatives, presenting himself as the best candidate to become the King of the wrapping mellow Memphis soul Supported by a big ensemble with drums, bass, guitar, keyboards, tenor, alto and baritone sax, trumpet, trombone, plus violin, cello, percussion and the backing vocals of The Iveys, with Arlen, Jessica and Julian, Johnny Rawls seduces us from the beginning to the end in everyone of the twelve songs included in this tasty superb album
