In tribute to singer-guitarist Syl Johnson, who passed away on Sunday at the age of 85, we’re spinning “Back For A Taste Of Your Love.” In 1973, when the “Back For A Taste Of Your Love” single and album released, Johnson was on Hi Records, lablemates with Al Green. You can definitely hear some similarities to Green in style and production but Johnson has his own sweet thing going on as well.

“Back For A Taste Of Your Love” grabbed #72 on the US Hot 100 and #16 on the R&B Singles chart. It’s a good one. Spin it!
