SYL JOHNSON - Is It Because I'm Black - Original LP on Twinight Records(LPS 1002)from 1970.
Breathtaking ! The tracks are a beautiful mix of long righteous cuts like "Is It Because I'm Black" and "Right On" -- plus shorter groovier ones, like "Together Forever" and "I'm Talkin About Freedom" and the Beatles "Come Together". This is one of the best ever soul albums to come out of Chicago -- and it may well be one of the best soul albums to ever come out of the 60s! Syl Johnson mixes west side bluesy soul with some great Chicago soul arrangements by Jimmy Jones & The Pieces Of Peace -- and the result is one of the heaviest soul albums you'll ever hear. Great stuff all round, and a real tough one to find on vinyl!
Cover is in VG+ condition. There's minor wear on the back and a small drill hole on the upper right corner but the front, sides and spine look great.
Record is in VG condition. There's some light marks on both sides but I played the entire record and it plays fine with no skips. There's just some minimal surface noise but it's not bad at all.
Ask any questions before bidding.
