Eddie and Ernie were an American soul music duo in the 1960s, comprising Eddie Campbell (born William Edgar Campbell, 23 December 1940, Marion County, Texas – died 10 July 1994, Los Angeles) and Ernie Johnson Jnr. (22 October 1943, Grimes County, Texas – 20 August 2005, Phoenix, Arizona) They sang in gospel groups before working as backing vocalists from the early-1960s. Based in Phoenix, Arizona, they made their first recordings as a duo (initially as Ernie & Eddie) in 1963, also making solo recordings. Although they recorded for several labels, some quite large such as Columbia, Chess, and Buddah, they never had any significant chart success, their biggest R&B hit being "Time Waits For No One" on Eastern records in 1965. In 1971, they both joined a local group, Phoenix Express. Their recordings later became popular with aficionados such as Dave Godin, on whose Deep Soul compilations several of their tracks appear. A compilation CD was released on Ace Records (UK) in 2002. (Musically, they are often compared to Sam & Dave). ==Discography== 1961 * "You Need Love"/"Tell Her For Me" (as Ernie Johnson) (Asnes 104) 1962 * "Who Stole My Girl"/"You Better Watch Your Step" (as Little Worley & The Drops) (Ramco 3710) 1963 * "Who's Been Knocking On My Door"/"It's A Weak Man That Cries" (Nightingale 5102 & Checker 1057) * "Found a Love, Where It's At"/"Self Service" (as The New Bloods) (Madley 101 & 20th Century Fox 554) * "Time Waits For No One"/"That's The Way It Is" (Tomorrow 5105 & Eastern 602 & in 1964, Checker 1086) 1964 * "I'm A Young Man"/"Turn Here" (Eastern 603) * "I'm Goin' For Myself"/"The Cat" (Eastern 606) * "Outcast"/"I'm Gonna Always Love You" (Eastern 608) 1965 * "I Can't Do It (I Just Can't Leave You)"/"Lost Friends" (Eastern 609) * "I Believe She Will"/"We Try Harder" (Shazam 1004 & Chess 1984) 1966 * "A Beautiful World"/"Indication" (Loadstone ????) 1967 * "Doggone It"/"Falling Tears" (Indian Drums) (Columbia 4-44276) * "The Groove She Put Me In"/"Indication" (Columbia unissued) * "Why Do You Treat Me Like You Do"/"Contagious Love" (as Eddie Campbell) (Artco 103) * "I Can't Stop The Pain"/"In These Very Tender Moments" (as Ernie Johnson) (Artco 104) * "Woman, What Do You Be Doing"/"Thanks For Yesterday" (Revue 11049) * "You Give Me Love To Go"/"Tell It Like It Is" (Revue 11063) 1968 * "Hiding In Shadows"/"Standing At The Crossroads" (Buddah BDA-250) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eddie & Ernie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
