Soul Metamorphosis

Vernard Johnson has always been noteworthy in Gospel circles for his forward thinking ability to apply contemporary production style to the traditional leanings of Gospel music. His recordings often feel like those of soul horn man King Curtis and soulful jazz horn man Houston Purson. With Soul Metamorphosis, Johnson's work is collected for the first time with an unprecedented nod to the funk and hip-hop communities. Soul Metamorphosis collects rare recordings, such as the title track, to produce a body of work that is as satisfying on Saturday night as it is on Sunday morning.
