Talent without marketing. Why are there no true artists today? Just blatant marketing products with no sign of talent. Let's all go back to the good 'ole days.

The man had incredible stage presence. He is considered by many to be the gateway bridge to Elvis Presley.

This hit, Just Walking in the Rain, by Johnny Ray was the 19th #1 song in the United Kingdom of the Rock Era. It was also the last #1 hit of 1956. What will the music scene be like in the UK in 1957? We will see.

@jaylinn1956 Yes he was deaf due to a childhood accident. and two botched operations in the fifties made it worse.

@stirre00 When this came out in 1956, Johnnie had been a big hit with the Bobbie Sox crowd for a number of years but this recording is what made me a Johnnie Ray fan. He had , I think, better recordings in the late fifties than he ever had in the early fifties.
