Syl Johnson
Complete Twinight Singles
'There are many great soul singers but few have inspired hip hop from its early beginning to now Syl Johnson is a unsung pioneer of musical fusion' RZAA Syl Johnson began the '60s a blues singer and session guitarist and concluded it having synthesized his own brand of gritty Chicago soul Their first signee Syl Johnson set the tone at Twinight Records writing and producing fifteen 45s during his four year tenure with the label This double LP neatly bundles each side of each of Johnson's Twinight 45s from the heavilysampled grunts on 'Different Strokes' to the ghetto conscious 'Concrete Reservation'
