Then, Johnny teamed up with Stacy for a duet album, which featured their first together, “Perfect Combination”, a second album on Atlantic Records, Chemistry, yielded the song “Half Crazy,”.

With Gill as one of the lead singers, the group developed a more mature, adult sound, hitting the charts with songs such as “Can You Stand The Rain,” “N.E.

The hits from his self entitled 1990 album include “My, My, My,” “Rub You the Right Way,” “Fairweather Friend” and “Wrap My Body ... Read More About Johnny Gill Biography...
