Johnny Adams - Walking On A Tightrope – The Songs Of Percy Mayfield flac album

Whenever Johnny Adams does a repertory album, it's as much his own showcase as a forum for the spotlighted composer. Even Percy Mayfield's lyrically brilliant works don't hamper Adams from displaying his special magic; his treatments on the session's ten tunes range from excellent to magnificent. Adams is gripping on "My Heart Is Hangin' Heavy," nicely bemused on "The Lover and the Married Woman," and convincing on the title track and "Danger Zone. Although he's done numerous Rounder vehicles, Adams hasn't yet turned in a dud.
