SYL JOHNSON – Tripping On Your Love / Foxy Brown – 7-inch – Vinyl [MAR 20]

Description

7” – Indies Exclusive Limited Edition Black Vinyl.

A small treasure trio. At its centre is the first-ever 7 appearance of Sylvester Syl Johnsons vibrant, groove-driven Tripping on Your Love and the title track Foxy Brown, long considered a funk collectors grailnever reissued, never compiled, and sitting in that sweet spot be- tween boogie and steppers, the kind of private-press rarity that could only come out of Chicago.

Joining Syl is Ujimas full-bodied soul workout, powered by steady rhythm and rich group harmonies, paired with Spirit of Brotherhoods gritty, street-level funk cutrecorded to tape, nearly lost to time, and later revived as the standout opener of Side A on Eccentric Disco, a release strong enough to spark seven more genre-focused editions from Numero.

Each 45 in the 3 Numero Eccentric Soul series 7-inches scheduled for March holds its own, but together they form a memorable trio for anyone seeking these tracks in their best-sounding and most tangible form.

Tracklist:

A: Tripping On Your Love

B: Foxy Brown
