Without the good people named Johnny Moore there would be a noticeable decrease in the size of vintage blues, rhythm & blues and soul sides. Put them all together and a rollicking good time would be had; indeed, when a Chicago soul singer by that name came up with the song "Lonely Heart in the City," he couldn't have possibly been thinking of such a get-together. Even staying within the greater Windy City area there are a number of performers this Johnny Moore could have been confused with since then who began recording for small labels such as Blue Rock in the '60s.
In the previous decade, another Johnny Moore had begun managing the El Dorados, a vocal group consisting of students from the high school where he worked as a janitor.
