This gospel album's funky sound absolutely proves that God – however you define the term – can be groovy.

"27-year-old Pastor T.L. Barrett, his band, and 40 kids in his Mt. Zion Church Youth Choir For Christ no doubt felt the turbulence of the '60s first-hand. In 1971, they channeled turmoil and revelry into their master work, Like A Ship...(Without A Sail.)"
You may think you’ve never heard of this choir or their music. To this, I raise you “Father I Stretch My Hands”…
Sound familiar?
Like A Ship Without A Sail review














i understand that the relation of the music to the historical moment, culture, is important in your writing here but i do admire " As the nation celebrated putting a man on the moon, the Panther 21 were put on trial". y'know just a technical thing in the detail of the wider piece.
i'll have to investigate the music coz i know zilch about it.
thanks AD ⭐.
