Tripping On Your Love + Foxy Brown

Description

A trio of gems: at the heart of this box set is the very first 45 RPM edition of Syl Johnson’s “Tripping on Your Love,” a vibrant and groovy track, as well as the eponymous "Foxy Brown," long considered a grail for funk collectors: never reissued, never compiled, and sitting at the crossroads of boogie and stepper, a self-produced rarity typical of Chicago. Also included is Ujima's powerful soul track, driven by a steady rhythm and rich vocal harmonies, coupled with Spirit of Brotherhood’s raw and authentic funk track – recorded on tape, almost forgotten, then resurrected as the flagship A-side track of the Eccentric Disco album, a release significant enough to spawn seven other thematic editions from Numero. Each 45 RPM record has its own value, but together, they form a memorable trio for anyone seeking these tracks in their most complete and tangible version.
