Soul Music, Complete Mythology Syl Johnson
Il a fallut quatre ans pour réaliser ce qui reste à aujourd'hui comme le plus abouti des projets de la maison Numero Group. Ces passionnés/historiens se sont concentrés sur les quinze premières années du légendaire musicien. Visionnaire, l'oeuvre de Syl Johnson, né Sylvester Thompson, contient des titres à succès aussi bien que des bijoux plus sombres à redécouvrir. Originaire de Holly springs, Mississippi, Syl a d'abord joué et chanté avec des bluesmen dans les années 50 avant d'enregistrer avec Jimmy Reed sur le label Vee-Jay en 1959. Mais ce sont ses sessions pour le label Twinight de Chicago à partir de 1967 qui ont été un véritable tournant dans sa carrière. Il y officia surtout comme producteur et c'est lui qui est derrière un grands nombre de hits comme "Come On Sock It To Me", "Different Strokes" (qui est une des chansons les plus samplées dans le rap), "Is It Because i'm Black" (2e place du Billboard R&B en 1969).
Le coffret se compose de 6 LP et de 4 CD (81 morceaux en tout). 28 singles ont été remastérisés, 10 morceaux sont totalement inédits. Bill Dahl, historien reconnu de la musique a écrit en détail sur chaque chanson. Il y a aussi un livret de 52 pages plein de photos inédites, un index des sampleurs ainsi que la discographie complète de ce génie de la Soul Music.
