New Press Release July 7th 2006:
Brunswick Records To Release Classic Soul Recordings Used To Launch Platinum Albums By Beyonce, Joss Stone And Paul Wall
Over the years our group has recorded for independent labels, major labels and even our own label, but the only record company that continues to account and pay us to this day is Brunswick. The next time a writer decides to write something about Brunswick or Nat Tarnopol, it would be nice if they took the time to talk to the artists who recorded with Nat. They may not get the story they want, but their readers may appreciate a story that's true.
Johnnie Gee whose honey-rich falsetto-tenor voice had thrilled millions throughout the world, the best thing about all this is that, he still got a rich smooth sound, wouldn't you agree?
As a producer, song writer, music agent and professional entertainer, Johnnie Gee has kept his chops up for 37 years, and the new EP release is another bar to put on the shoulders of ‘The General of Soul’.
Johnnie Gee is a talented songwriter with the ability to write songs that’s provided, in a secular format, the depth of the most heartfelt Soul music; and he was a remarkable song stylist who defined (or redefined) nearly every song he touched in his career.
At their peak, Johnnie Gee & The Step By Step Band were perhaps the most consistent song writers in Soul Music out of the Midwest. They had the best producer in the business Eddie Parnell, some of the most infectious material of the early 70s and perhaps the smoothest falsetto lead vocalist in Johnnie Gee.
