Leon Frank Sylvers III is an American singer, composer, disc jockey, record producer, and multi-instrumentalist who was born in Memphis, Tennessee, on March 7, 1953 and is now 69 years old. He belonged to the family group The Sylvers, and because of his connection to Dick Griffey’s SOLAR Records in the late 1970s and early 1980s, he rose to prominence as one of black music’s most successful producers. He has written and produced tracks that J Dilla, Dr. Dre, and Madlib have sampled.
He first gained popularity in the early 1960s when he joined his siblings’ harmony vocal group The Little Angels (Olympia, Charmaine, and James), after relocating with his family from Memphis to Los Angeles, “near Adams and Crenshaw.”
When Ed Sullivan saw them perform in Las Vegas in 1959, he predicted they would become well-known. They made appearances on a variety of programs like Make Room for Daddy, You Bet Your Life, and The Spike Jones Show during this time. They went on tour with Ray Charles in the US as well.
