Recordado sobre todo por su clásico del soul "Hang On in There Baby", Johnny Bristol fue un poderoso y desgarrador cantante de R&B que también trabajó para Motown Records durante su época dorada en los años sesenta y setenta. Nacido en Carolina del Norte, Bristol estaba sirviendo en las fuerzas aéreas cuando empezó a cantar en un dúo de doo-wop con Jackey Beavers y grabó una serie de singles en 1959 para el sello Tri-Phi. Cuando la compañía pasó a manos de Motown a mediados de los 60, empezó a trabajar con Harvey Fuqua como productor y compositor y, tras casarse con la sobrina del fundador del sello, Berry Gordy, se convirtió en una parte importante de la empresa y ayudó a crear éxitos como "Aint No Mountain High Enough" para Marvin Gaye y Tammi Terrell, "Someday We'll Be Together" para Diana Ross y las Supremes y "What Does It Take" para Junior Walker y los Allstars.

Deseoso de alcanzar el estrellato, firmó un contrato con MGM como solista y obtuvo un éxito inmediato cuando su primer sencillo, "Hang On in There Baby", alcanzó el número dos en el Reino Unido y el número ocho en Estados Unidos en 1974. Posteriormente fue versionada por Bette Midler, Blue y Gary Barlow, y se ha convertido en una pieza reconocida del R&B-pop de la época, pero los siguientes singles de Bristol, "Memories Don't Leave Like People Do" y "You and I", no lograron el mismo impacto. Los Osmonds consiguieron un número uno en el Reino Unido con su canción "Love Me for a Reason" y Bristol grabó más tarde el dúo "My Guy - My Girl" con Amii Stewart, que fue popular en Europa en 1980. Siguió actuando, grabando y escribiendo con regularidad hasta la década de 1990, antes de fallecer a los 65 años en 2004 por causas naturales.
