5 out of 5 stars GREAT GROUP HARMONY.......2007-07-25

I heard a few songs by the prisonaires on this radio show i listen to.
Wanted to hear more of them.bought the C D. They're better than
i thought they were.Just Walkin' in the Rain: The True Story of the Prisonaires: the Convict Pioneers of R & B and Rock & Roll
You should also get the book.Fasinating story how Johnny Bragg got
wrongly convicted & sent to prison. He wrote songs & formed singing
group. Wound up at Sun Recording Studio. Performed at the Governor's
Mansion.

4 out of 5 stars The Amazing Prisonaires.......2004-06-02

The Prisonaires recorded on the Sun Records label, along with a young Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash. The only difference was The Prisonaires were in jail at the time. They were all convicts, serving hard time. They would actually get day passes out of prison to record their music. They had a million selling hit with "Just Walkin' In The Rain" that was later remade and turned into a pop smash by pre-Elvis singing phenomenon Johnny Ray. The reason they were able to get out of jail for occasional recording sessions and public appearances was a Governor named Frank Clement who had made prison reform part of his agenda and held The Prisonaires as an example of prison rehabilitation. They even recorded a tribute to him called "What About Frank Clement{ He's a Mighty Man"}. They sang plaintive gospel like "My God Is Real" and "A Prisoner's Prayer" and were clearly influenced by The Ink Spots. The lead singer had a pleading, vulnerable vocal quality that was really quite sincere and appealing. Their story is one that has been seldom told and will no doubt make a great movie one day. To read more about their amazing story, read "Just Walkin' In The Rain" by Jay Warner.

      5 out of 5 stars An amazing and neglected story..........2001-09-01

      I first heard of Johnny Bragg while listening to the Bob Harris show on BBC Radio 2 (Saturday nights 22.00-01.00 BST)
      The title track of this CD was the huge hit for Johnny Ray in the 1950's and was written by Johnny Bragg.

      The music on the CD is excellent amd sound quality very good indeed.

      The interest in the story is explained in full in the first class
      sleeve notes that go with the CD.
      Johnny Bragg spent much of his life in prison, frequently on false charges.

      The story revolves around the relationship between Bragg and a reforming Governor of Tenessee Frank Clement.

      Bragg and his "backing group" The Prisonaires were all long-term inmates who found a route ot of the circumstance they were in through music and the support of Clement.

      It is a remakable story of two men from the very oposite ends of the social specrum who gained from each other.

      The story of how Bragg came to write and ecord is all detailed as are the changes to the various backing groups over the years.
      Equally amazing is the involvement of a certain Elvis Presley.
      Bragg and the Prisonaires became important tools for penal reform and performed on a weekly basis at the Governor's Mansion in front of the likes of Roy Acuff, Roy Rogers, Eddy Arnold and former President Harry Truman.

      As the sleeve notes comment;
      "The Prisonaires too eserve a place in early RandB history...They've been overlooked by most music historians and relegated to novelty staus when history shows they were a pioneering southern RandB group"
      The whole story is much more than the very brief summary given above.

      As time went on Bragg changed both the style of his music and his backing singers, for a variety of reasons.
      Sadly Governor Clement was killed in a car rash at the age of 49 and Bragg recorded and wrote no more after his death.
      The album is also great music to listen to. As well as all the emotion of this unque story the people involved were obviously very talanted.

      A must for any serious musice collection great sounds and a great story very well told by Jay Warner in the sleeve notes which are expanded in a book by Jay Warner "Just Walkin'in the Rain published by Renaissance Books (ISBN #58063-140-1)
      A very moving story and a very powerful CD. Highly recommended.
