$19.99
Rootsy material recorded for Epic in the 60s, before the group went over to Stax and started cutting secular soul!

Includes 26 tracks from Jaybird Coleman, Charley Patton, Blind Willie Davis, Elder Otis Jones, Blind Roosevelt Graves, William and Versey Smith, Bo Weavil Jackson, and more. (Blues, Gospel)CD
A killer killer compilation – the sort we've been dying to own for years! It's a well known fact that there's plenty of funky nuggets hidden amidst 70s gospel recordings – massive grooves and break-heavy tracks that rank right up there with the best indie funk from the same time. Yet ... (Funky Compilations, Gospel)read moreCD
Hardly the gospel of your father's generation – and hardly even the gospel of previous Numero releases either – as the set's a wonderfully offbeat batch of tracks that definitely lives up to the "apocryphal" in the title!

A pretty fantastic selection of rare disco tracks from the American underground – all of them infused with a spiritual message, but served up with grooves that go head to head with some of the best underground club of the time!
