Jim Gaines-Produced Label Debut CD

Memphis Jewel, Set For Release on July 5

 

EL PASO, TX – Catfood Records announces the signing of Memphis-based soul/blues singer Jackie Johnson, and a July 5 release date for her debut album for the label, Memphis Jewel. The new CD was produced and mixed by Grammy-winning producer Jim Gaines, (Stevie Ray Vaughan, Santana, Luther Allison), recorded at Sonic Ranch Studios in Tornillo, Texas, and Leeway Music in Memphis; and mixed at Gaines’ Bessie Blue Studio in Stantonville, Tennessee.  

One of the many highlights on Memphis Jewel is a stone-cold soul/blues duet with Jackie Johnson and Blues Music Award-winning singer Johnny Rawls on “Love You Still,” a song that recalls the classic duets of Otis Redding/Carla Thomas and William Bell/Judy Clay in the glory days of Stax Records.
