Foster Sylvers – Foster Sylvers

Vinyl LP pressing. Digitally remastered edition. Brilliant funk-soul from 1973. Written by Leon Sylvers III produced by a heavyweight line-up comprising Jerry Butler Keg Johnson and Michael Viner. As with the majority of The Sylvers music from this period the album has been heavily sampled. 'Misdemeanour' is a truly classic break and has been utilized by Madlib Big Daddy Kane Rodney P The D.O.C Pete Rock and many more. Danny Krivit edited the track in 2007 adding an acappella version on the front - still a big record with DJ's. The Sylvers were a family from Los Angeles who were very successful during the 70's and into the early 80's with chart hits - deep into pop-disco territory by then! - including 'Boogie Fever' 'Hot Line' and 'High School Dance'.
