CD (Item 500011) Specialty, Early 50s -- Condition: New Copy

Previously unissued work from Brother Joe May -- mostly recorded in Los Angeles in the early 50s, with a very spontaneous, live sort of feeling! May's got a hell of a lot of soul in his vocals -- and a set like this is key proof that gospel contributed as much to the birth of soul as blues and R&B -- maybe even more so, when you hear the way that Joe stretches out and inflects the lyrics. Titles include "Move On Up A Little Higher", "He's The One", "Vacation In Heaven", "Old Ship Of Zion", "Speak Lord Jesus", and "He'll Understand & Say Well Done". (CD case has a small cutout notch.)  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
