In the history of American soul music, perhaps no other artist has
been more overlooked than Joe Tex. During the golden age of soul
music in the 1960's, Tex was not only a tremendous singer and
dancer, but he wrote many hit songs, including his own four biggest
hit records. This book follows his early days in Texas, his success
and struggles on the road, his 25-year recording career, his
life-long rivalry with James Brown, his conversion to the Muslim
faith, and his triumphant return to show business. Joe Tex is one
of the most dynamic and talented artists in the history of American
music. Here is his story. Rare photographs and discography
included.
