Tony Owens is an 'underground hero' who lived in the shadows of the big names during soul music's golden age. Although his name may be unknown to the masses and almost forgotten by many soul fans, Owens is highly respected by real soul connoisseurs who rightly consider him to be on of the great unknowns. Despite the fact that he wasn't a prolific recording artist, having less than a dozen 45s issued in a period of twenty-four years, Owens was a big attraction in his native city of New Orleans and he built up a small but loyal following overseas, particularly in Europe and Japan.
