Johnny Ace - Memorial Album (1973 reissue) [Complete LP]
This Memorial Album to Johnny Ace was released in 1973 on MCA Records, catalogue number MCA-27014.
Johnny Ace (1929-1954) [real name John Marshall Alexander Jr.] had a successful recording career between 1952 and 1954, but is unfortunately often best remembered for the way he died: shooting himself in the head while backstage during an intermission while performing at the City Auditorium in Houston, Texas on Christmas Day, 1954. It was widely reported that he was playing Russian Roulette. Witnesses, including Big Mama Thornton, said he had been playing with the gun, but not playing Russian Roulette, before he accidentally shot himself.
Johnny Ace is buried in New Park Cemetery, Memphis, Tennessee: http://www.mississippibluestravellers.com/johnny-ace-new-park-cemetery-memphis-tennessee/
