Johnnie and Joe were an R&B duo who hit the R&B charts three times, including the massive hit Over The Mountain (R&B #3, Pop #8).
Johnnie was Johnnie Richardson who ran the Dice label (the Clickettes) and she was the daughter of Zell Sanders whose J & S Label released the Baby Washington & Hearts discs - so all our J & S/Dice reissues tie in together.
Includes their hits for J & S and Chess plus three previously unreleased items.
The musical & vocal arrangements are similar to and will appeal to collectors of doo wop from the same period.
Not only is the first legitimate CD release by the duo but even Ace has only ever released one track by them.
