Some Of My Favorite Gospel Records...



I've been meaning to share some songs from my gospel collection, which has been growing slowly and unsteadily over the last couple years. Probably like a lot of people of my generation I got into gospel from the funk angle but that emphasis has definitely gone by the wayside for me. I'm all about these slow burning beauties now.

Tracklist:


1. The Gospel Clouds - Let Us Pray (Spectrum)
2. The Gospel Hummingbirds - Trouble Don't Last Always (W&E)
3. The Master Keys - I Won't Have To Cry (Styletone)
4. Eloise Polk - I'm Willing To Run All The Way (Prophecy)
5. Ruby & The Dreamers - A Right To Be Free (Pavillion)
6. The Gospel I.Q.'s - Heaven Was Made For Me (Su-Ann)
7. The Jackson Southernairs - On My Way Home (Songbird)
8. The Friendly Travellers - Going To A City (Wajo)
9. The Jackson Southernairs - Too Late
10. The Master Keys - I Cried Lord (Styletone)
11. The Daytonians - Let Jesus Work It Out (Church Door)
12. The Mighty Gospel Travelers - I Don't Know Why (Champ)
13. The Salem Travelers - Crying Pity & A Shame (Checker)
14. Sister Corene Barton - Lord I Need You As I Travel (J&W)
15. The Soul Superiors Of Detroit - What Ever You Do, Do Good (Designer)
16. The Daytonians - Lord Hold My Hand (Church Door)
