Johnnie & Joe
Johnnie & Joe were an American R&B vocal duo from The Bronx, who were best known for their 1957 hit "Over the Mountain; Across the Sea."
Johnnie Louise Richardson (June 29, 1935, Montgomery, Alabama - October 25, 1988, New York City) and Joe Rivers (March 20, 1937, Charleston, South Carolina〔(Rex Garvin at Black Cat Rockabilly )〕) began singing together in 1957 and released several singles on Chess Records, which were leased from J & S Records, to whom the duo were under contract. Richardson was the daughter of the J&S label owner, Zelma "Zell" Sanders, who had been a touring member of The Hearts.〔
Three of the songs hit the U.S. singles charts. "Over the Mountain, Across the Sea", written by Rex Garvin, went to #3 on the R&B chart and #8 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, and "I'll Be Spinning", written by Freddie Scott, went Top 10 R&B, both in 1957.〔 "My Baby's Gone", a #15 R&B hit, was their last,〔 although "Over the Mountain, Across the Sea" returned to the pop charts in 1960, peaking at #89 the second time around.〔
Richardson and Rivers resumed their professional partnership later in the 1960s. During the 1970s and 80s they performed in oldies concerts, and made a critically acclaimed album, ''Kingdom of Love'', in 1982.〔(Johnnie & Joe Biography )〕 Johnnie Richardson died of complications from a stroke in 1988.
