Sin & Soul

Oscar Brown Jr. · 1960

Sin & Soul is Oscar Brown Jr.'s 1960 debut LP — a lyric-driven jazz record built from pre-existing instrumentals. It states Black experience plainly, using rhythm, repetition, and vernacular language. Its sound is lean, dry, and voice-forward. No embellishment. No evasion.
