Morning Echoes Of Detroit
Echoes Of The Gospel (180 gram pressing)Nashboro/Third Man, 1967. New Copy (reissue)
LP...$18.99
19.99
A gem of a gospel set from the legendary Nashboro catalog – crafted by a very hip male sextet from Detroit – one who are clearly open to letting a lot of blues and soul influences into their music! One of the key elements from those styles here is spare but strong use of guitar or ... LP, Vinyl record album
Narroway, 1950s/1960s. New Copy 2 CDs
CD...$24.99
29.98
A fantastic set of gospel tracks from the 50s and 60s – one that definitely takes the Civil Rights theme in the title seriously, but in ways that are often a bit more subtle than you might expect! Gospel music was key to the strivings of under-represented Americans during these years – ... CD
Como Mamas
Move UpstairsDaptone, 2017. New Copy
LP...$16.99
18.99
A second fantastic set from this Mississippi gospel trio – and one that mixes their heavenly vocals with a bit of Daptone Records funk! The set's produced by Bosco Mann, who also plays bass in the quartet that backs up the singers – and the groove is raw and gritty, with a vibe that ... LP, Vinyl record album
Bill Moss & The Celestials
I Ain't Gonna Sing No Rock & RollMalaco/Ultra Vybe (Japan), 1983. New Copy
No rock and roll at all – and instead, a killer gospel set from this legendary group – one that features Bill's wonderful lead vocals trading back and forth with Essie Moss too! The style of the music is in that hip Malaco Records blend of deep soul and bluesy currents – which ... CD
Elder Jeffrey Roberson & The New Life Singers
Old Time WayBlack Diamond/High Jazz (Switzerland), 1982. New Copy (reissue)
LP...$30.99
31.98
From his look on the cover, Jeffrey Roberson is hardly an "elder" – although he definitely brings a sense of wisdom and knowledge to the spirit of the grooves on this set! The album's one of those great lost crossovers between gospel and modern soul – upbeat and clubby on ... LP, Vinyl record album

New WorldBuddah, 1973. Very Good+ Gatefold
Great stuff from Edwin Hawkins – as much of a soul album as it is a gospel set – but that's no surprise, given how important the Hawkins sound was to skirting both genres!
