Heart & Soul is a compilation album by American blues musician Johnny Adams. Released in 1969 by SSS International, the record was produced by Shelby Singleton and contains much of Adams' 1960s output. Johnny Adams was born in 1932 and grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana. He absorbed the local music heritage and by his teens joined the Soul Revivers, a popular local gospel quartet.

Johnny Adams was an American blues, jazz and gospel singer from New Orleans, Louisiana whose multi-octave vocal range and impressive use of falsetto are the perfect centerpiece for his smoldering blues and soul numbers. Making records over the course of several decades, Adams’ catalog is laced with tangible nostalgia in every track. I Don't Worry Myself. I Have No One. Johnny Adams. Need Help Finding the Right Song? We will find the perfect song for your project.

Johnny Adams can wear many hats- jazz, soul, blues and usually he wears them all on any single album. One Foot" isn't the kind of contemporary blues record you'd expect in the 90. his is cabaret blues, silky smooth and pretty. His foot is only dipped in soul/blues 'cuz the rest of his body is an uptown lounge ala Johnny Hartman. 10. Stand by Me 11. Bells of St. Mary 12. White Christmas 13. I Can't Be All Bad 14.

Sadly, Johnny Adams – who resurfaced as a blues singer in the ’80s and ’90s – died from cancer in 1998 aged 66, thereby depriving the world of one of soul music’s most compelling and passionate male voices. For those who are unfamiliar with the man dubbed ‘the Tan Canary,’ this compilation provides an essential introduction. Proving his versatility even more, Adams surges into hard driving blues-based wailers with I Can’t Be All Bad and the especially lamenting Losing Battle. The Tan Canary ends ‘Heart & Soul‘ with a gospelfide, uptempo soul belter; Living on Your Love is propelled by a fatback groove and biting electric guitar riffs, and carried by Adams’ incredible, big booming voice.
