"The only singer, so far as we know, ever signed to both Sun and Motown Records, the two most historic independent, legendary record companies in the world. What's most remarkable is that Johnny Powers is no second-generation revivalist: He was wrapping his rich, early voice around similarity unfettered melodies back in 1954 - 15 year's before Sha Na Na trivialized the genre and 25 years before it was billed by the Stray Cats.
