5.0 out of 5 stars Genre-Busting Gospel, July 20, 2003

This review is from: Deep South Gospel (Audio CD)

I am an unlikely fan of gospel; I'm not Christian, and I resist being prosletyzed to. But I heard this album while shopping in a record store and had to have it. In it you can hear the seeds of Doo-Wop, just exploding with verve and energy and virtuoso acapella performances. Try a couple of the sample tracks Amazon has furnished and see if you agree. Unfortunately, some of the liveliest and varied tracks; Live So God Can Use You, and I'll Fly Away aren't available for sampling, but I strongly reccomend you at least spend a few minutes trying the available samples and seeing if you don't think they have potential. If it doesn't flat-out leave you cold with the stripped-down instrumentals and the lyrical content, I'll vouch that you'll enjoy these songs in their entirety.
