Johnny Rivers Biography
Johnny Rivers was one of the biggest pop stars of the '60s & 70's, but success didn't come easily. He recorded for a dozen labels through '64, before going Top 10 with a cheerfully chugging version of Chuck Berry's Memphis .
More hits followed, Maybellene , Midnight Special (which became the theme song for the hit TV show Midnight Special featuring Wolfman Jack), Seventh Son , all with a dance-friendly go-go beat, yelling live audience and a sound enhanced by top-notch studio musicians.
Rivers racked up almost 30 hits in the 60's & 70's. Versatile and astute, he was more than willing to change styles for the driving TV theme Secret Agent Man then suddenly becoming a pop crooner, going to No. 1 that same year with the brooding Poor Side Of Town . He re-arranged Motown classics ( Baby, I Need Your Lovin ), tried good-natured New Orleans rock 'n' roll ( Rockin' Pneumonia - Boogie Woogie Flu ), mystical folk-rock ( Summer Rain ), and updated surf sounds ( Help Me Rhonda, with Brian Wilson singing back-up). He even returned to the Top 10 in '77 with the mellow Swayin' To The Music (Slow Dancin').

Baby I Need Your Lovin - Maybelline - Memphis
Mountain Of Love - Poor Side Of Town
Rockin Pneumonia & Boogie Woogie Flu
