User:Harold T. Johnson Sr.

I am Harold Johnson of the Harold Johnson Sextet. I am very much alive. Original member flutist-David Crawford & I have recorded "BACK ON ELM STREET" a reunion CD '09. After Universal/Revue, I created a singing group called THE DEVASTATING AFFAIR. We signed with Motown in 1971. I should have never dissolved the Harold Johnson Sextet. The Devastating Affair toured with Diana Ross as an opening act and background group 1971-74. The group dissolved in 1975. I remained at Motown as a Producer, Writer, Artist until 1980. In 1980, I signed an exclusive Producer, Writer agreement with A&M Records. During that time I received my BA in Music Education at California State University Dominguez Hills. I was on staff at A&M Records until 1985. I became a LAUSD Music Instructor. I wrote & directed several off-broadway stage productions. I received the NAACP Theatre Image Award for AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE stage play in 2005. I'm a recipient of Gold & Platinum Albums & CD's. I am an Executive Producer at JQ Records. I'm currently touring Europe with Gospel Artist Liz Mc Comb.
