Georgia Morning Dew is from the Heart & Soul is a compilation album by American blues musician Johnny Adams. Released in 1969 by SSS International, the record was produced by Shelby Singleton and contains much of Adams' 1960s output.

Heart & Soul largely blends 1960s gospel, soul, pop, blues, country and funk. "Georgia Morning Dew" has been described as "bouncy country-funk" that provides a "giddy, melancholy counterpart to Adams' throaty proclamations."

When I listen to Georgia Morningdew through the horns and screen instrument I hear country when Johnny Adams sings.

Standing on this mountain
Looking over LA
At the break of day
Takes my mind back to Georgia
Many years ago
When I was just a babe
Papa'd plow up the fields
And we'd walk behind


When I hear Johnny sing about the mountain and plowing up the field, I know that's country with the tune and words to the song.

I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to the Country Soul Show.
