CD Reviews

Essential Black Gospel

06/03/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Absolutely superb collection of black gospel from the King, Federal and Deluxe record labels. Most of these cuts have never been issued on CD. It's amazing to think that as influential gospel music was to early rock-n-roll so few people take the time to explore it. This CD offers a great opportunity. From the sublime harmonies of the great Spririt of Memphis Quartet to the Pentecostal rock of the Cumberland River Singers, this CD really just hints at what else lies in the King vaults. As with all ACE reissues, there's impeccable, extensive liner notes, great pictures and an all around beautiful package and design. And the songs are taken directly from the master tapes so the sound is outstanding. Word has it this needs to sell well in order for further King gospel reissues to happen. It would be such a shame if this is all we gospel fanatics get. Get one for everyone you know."
