The Birmingham Community Choir — 642

Let God Into You, He Cares for You  (Date not listed)

Perhaps because it is Sunday. And perhaps because it is more or less next on my alphabetical list to count down my 678 records, I’m going to go to the Birmingham Community Choir.

I remember buying this in Birmingham before I went away, perhaps in 1983 or 1984. I bought it in a predominantly black neighborhood, that if memory serves me, focused primarily on gospel music.

This is big booming Sunday-go-to-church music, which I am preparing to  do to hear my wife, Interim Associate Pastor Catherine Oliver, deliver the sermon at 11 at First Presbyterian Birmingham.

This choir  was directed by Lawrence T. Sneed.

It has old school gospel  songs, ‘I Dreamed of a City ‘Called Glory’ and the MLK tribute ‘Let Freedom Ring’ and ‘And Jesus is on the Mainline’ and ‘I’ll See You in the Rapture.”

I h ave not been able to find this album on the Internet. Though I did find another from this same choir called “Why Can’t I.” I also believe I bought other records from this store, including gospel by Al Green and Little Richard.

Anyone with more information, let me know in the comments.
