Tony Owens

...  along with King Floyd, the Meters, Jean Knight, Charles Brimmer, and Chocolate Milk, Owens’ was one of New Orleans most successful recording artists of the’19705. Although he curiously never had an-album, ... Owens had several major label releases and has toured the country on more than'one occasion. Primarily a balladeer, with roots in the fields of gospel and close vocal group harmony, Owens’ voice had a polished yet haunting quality.
