Diamond In The Rough Syl Johnson SKU: FPH11791 Barcode: 767981117911 20.00 £20.00 Genre: Soul / Funk Label: Fat Possum Released Date: 3rd March 2023 Buying Format: 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info This second of three underrated releases for Hi finds Syl Johnson slowly but surely transforming from a credulous loser into a standup guy no one messes around with. Diamond in the Rough could be viewed as a creative bridge between the slightly formulaic Hi approach of 1973’s Back for a Taste of Your Love and the more bluesy and rewarding Total Explosion from 1975. Different from the southern soul belter which distinguished fellow Hi second leaguers Otis Clay and O.V. Wright, Johnson’s unique feat lies in his earnest yet sometimes ironic take on love and relationships.
