Pastor TL Barrett – like a ship (without a sail) lp

Mooie en legendarische gospelsoul lp op Light in the Attic. Volgens bijvoorbeeld Jim James van My Morning Jacket één van de belangrijkste platen ooit gemaakt. In een mooie klaphoes en met veel info. En prachtige muziek van deze dominee uit Chicago. ‘Long revered by record collectors, this album remains one of the holy grails of gospel soul. Self-released in 1971, Like A Ship was the result of Barrett channeling his passion for music, a determination to keep children off the streets, and his charismatic preaching (which attracted the likes of Earth, Wind & Fire and Donny Hathaway to his sermons at Mount Zion Baptist Church) into the production of the album, backed by a cast of players that included Phil Upchurch and the rapturous vocals of the Youth For Christ Choir.’ Hier nog een mooi verhaal over deze dominee. Hier een nummer.
