Jesse Johnsons Revue / Shockadelica / Every Shade Of Love
For the first time all three of Jesse Johnson’s albums available on one package. Featuring Jesse Johnson’s Revue, Shockadelica and Every Shade Of Love. Plus five Bonus Tracks.
Jesse Johnson had appeared as a member of the group The Time in Prince’s movie Purple Rain, which quickly exploded into an international blockbuster and spawned a multi-platinum-selling soundtrack album loaded with hit singles. But a few weeks later, Jesse Johnson quit The Time, following singer Morris Day and drummer Jellybean Johnson (no relation) through the exit door.
Johnson’s aspiration to sign a solo record deal was finally realized in 1984 when he inked a contract with A&M Records. Before he cut tracks for his debut album, he wrote and produced a couple of funky synth-pop songs for Janet Jackson’s second album, Dream Street.
Later in 1984, he began work writing and producing Jesse Johnson’s Revue, the self-titled album of a six-piece band Johnson had assembled and led; they included former Time members Mark Cadenas (keys) and Gerry Hubbard (bass), alongside guitarist Michael Baker, keyboardist Tim Bradley, and drummer Bobby Vandell. The album included three Top Ten R&B singles, "Be Your Man", "Can You Help Me" and "I Want My Girl".
The follow-up album Shockadelica included the collaboration with Sly Stone, "Craazay" which peaked at number two in the U.S. R&B chart, you will find the extended version included in the bonus tracks.
The final album Every Shade Of Love features another top five R&B chart smash, "Love Struck" and again the bonus tracks feature the Dance Mix of this fantastic cut. The package includes in-depth sleeve notes by journalist Charles Waring who contributes to MOJO, Record Collector and uDiscovermusic.com.
