ALBUM: The Blackwood Brothers in Concert (1960)
MVC Rating: 3.5/$
I went through a period where I was really into gospel music. Earlier here I reviewed the Birmingham Community Choir and I probably bought this in the same early 1980s time period in Birmingham.
I have further down on the alphabetical list some vinyl by Rev. Al Green and some vinyl gospel by Little Richard.
Unfortunately my favorite gospel music is on digital: The Blind Boys From Alabama, the Dixie Hummingbirds and, especially, the Soul Stirrers featuring Sam Cooke. (See video below).
This album is rousing old school gospel. Yes, and of course, it has How Great Thou Art.
And on Hide Me, Rock of Ages, basso singer J.D. Summer gets low, slows it down and gets really low. Sounds like a purring tiger.
The back cover shown here has an ad for a high quality stereophonic Victrola. Looking at it. I want it.
Counting down my 678 vinyl records before I die of brain disease.
