a raw immediate and undiluted
emotional charge - contains the cream of both the
black and white gospel music of the era." - CMJ

overview ... It's the next
best thingto a time machine." - Youthworker

| A powerful
and deeply moving overview of Early American religious music and
song from the white and black rural countryside. Highlights the
fascinating panorama of American religious music styles from archaic
fundamentalist modal hymns, to gospel quartets, to Pentecostal bands,
to songsters accompanying themselves on guitars, banjos, and fiddles,
to snippets of Church services including some preaching, and much,
much more. |
