Jazz Club – Swingin Gospel

Various
Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 606033) Universal (Germany), Late 40s/1950s — Condition: New Copy

Gospel gems, but with a pretty swinging groove too – often a touch of postwar R&B in the rhythms, which helps these tunes cook strongly far from the pulpit! A few of the singers here are ones who contributed plenty to the birth of soul music – including a very young Aretha Franklin, featured here on some key early tracks – and the package is a great reminder that the space between soul and gospel is pretty darn small, especially when you know where to listen! Titles include "You Better Run" by Dorothy Love Coates, "The Day Is Past & Gone" by Aretha Franklin, "I Want To Go To Heaven & Rest" by Sister Wynona Carr, "Jericho" by Sister Rosetta Tharpe, "Over In Beulah Land" by Alex Bradford, "Yield Not To Temptation" by Aretha Franklin, "I'll Fly Away" by The Five Blind Boys Of Alabama, "Dragnet For Jesus" by Sister Wynona Carr, and "Ananais" by The Chosen Gospel Singers.  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
