Description:
Johnny Ace's career lasted barely eighteen months, yet musicians from Bob Dylan to Paul Simon have acknowledged their debt to him. This is the first comprehensive treatment of an enigmatic performer whose biggest hit, "Pledging My Love", would top the R&B charts and cross over to pop after he died playing Russian roulette in his dressing room between sets at a packed "Negro Christmas dance" in Houston.
