(April 8, 2014) Al Johnson was one of the all-time soul greats. First as a member of the great Unifics and then as a solo artist, songwriter and producer, Johnson was the pride of DC and an extremely underrated, talented man. (See our death notice of Al)
When Al died last October, he left a big hole in the hearts of soul music fans. Thanks to Desi Hill and the good folks at Clout Entertainment, we’re happy to share with SoulTrackers Al’s final recording. It was to be the title track of his unfinished final album, Maybe the Fire Isn’t Out. It’s a very nice midtempo number featuring Al’s unmistakeable voice up front. We sharing it as a reminder of just how special this artist was right until the end.
Check out Al’s recording, “Maybe the Fire Isn’t Out.” We are proud to present it as a tribute to Al Johnson.
