CD Reviews

Short but Sweet

nadav haber | jerusalem Israel | 03/26/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is a collection of 11 songs by this great group. These songs are not found on their other CD's, and they are a little different than the music they recorded for the Specialty label. There are no linear notes in the CD to give some information except the song titles, but it seems to me that these songs were recorded in the mid sixties, a decade later than the recordings available on other CD's.
Some songs are influenced by the Motown sound (Satisfied with Jesus, My God can do no Wrong), and some are more traditionally oriented (Mother's on the Train, Our Revival Time).
This is my 3rd CD of this group, and does add things that are not found elsewhere. However, if you are buying your first CD by this great group, don't start here, as it only contains 11 songs, and you can buy "The Sermon" which contains about 25 songs that are at least as good."
