Praise Be! Boarding The Gospel Train CD

Praise Be! Boarding the gospel train in thrall of the Lord, Lux and Ivy dig the God-fearing nation.
This 23 song collection of God-fearing classics featuring Gospel legends, country cousins and some of the greatest voices ever!
Including tracks by Johnny Cash, BB King, The Staple Singers, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, The Mighty Clouds Of Joy, George Jones, Patsy Cline, LaVern Baker, Don Gibson and many more.
When Joliet “Jake” Blues saw the light from above James Brown’s pulpit in The Blues Brothers, the congregation were intoxicated with the sound and the vision; a pretty accurate reflection on the 1950s and early '60s spiritualism that overflowed from the churches into the recording studios to produce a series of records that filled radio stations with some of the greatest voices ever.
A hybrid collision of aching country spirituals mixed with Bible bashing beauties, devotional pleas and vocal interpretations of the Good Book.
Remastered from the original sound source for pristine quality and accomanied by informative liner notes.
