I grew up in New Orleans and had the great pleasure of seeing this man live many times; often in little hole-in-the-wall clubs, which is the best kind of place to see him. In my view, there is no better voice anywhere in this world than that of the legendary Tan Canary, the incomparable Johnny Adams!
One of the best vocalists I ever had the pleasure of working with.I got my friend Michael Odonohue to bok him at the old Tramps night club in nyc and only about 20 people showed up but I got to play withthis New Orleans legend,Spectacular show.RIP Johnny,you are surely mised

Undoubtedly one of the best voices of all time.

T. Brannon totally agree he was special
Just saw Jon Cleary tonight; he spoke so highly of Johnny Adams.
To me the best ever.

thank you
Brilliant. Likewise I have been searching RUclips for ages for live clips of JA. Would love to have seen him in person.
Thanks.
Jon Cleary on piano??
Is that Charles Brown in the front row? Then that must be Danny Caron on guitar
Funny to see George Porter Jr. playing a G&L bass. I've always seen him with a Fender P or Lakland P
The G stands for George.
Song is called Wild Romance. Previously done by Mose Allison.
yes, that's CB, and yes, that's Danny Caron. Froms the rolled-up sleeves on the jacket I'd say....80'early 90's
Tan Canary Doin Percy!!!
Same dude. Great band, GP jr., John Cleary. Kenneth Blevins…not sure who the drummer is.
Kenny Blevins is the drummer
