Soul Jazz Records Presents Holy Church Of The Ecstatic Soul – A Higher Power: Gospel, Funk & Soul at the Crossroads 1971-83 Various Artists SKU: SJRLP522 Barcode: 5026328005225 28.00 £28.00 Genre: Soul / Funk Label: Soul Jazz Released Date: 22nd September 2023 Buying Format: 2LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Soul Jazz Records’ ‘Holy Church of the Ecstatic Soul – A Higher Power – Gospel, Funk & Soul at the Crossroads 1971-83’ draws upon the extensive links between black American gospel music and soul music, showing how the sensibilities of gospel artists such as Shirley Caeser, Dorothy Norwood, Andrae Crouch and others crossed over into secular soul music during this period. The album was first available as a long-sold out coloured vinyl edition for RSD 2023 and is now available on black double vinyl. Many of the most successful soul artists – from Aretha Franklin to Al Green, The Staple Singers to Sam Cooke – all drew upon their upbringing in the church for their musical inspiration. This album discusses how important the links between the black church and soul music were in creating soul music and spotlights some of the many important (and also little-known) gospel artists who walked this line between sacred music and soul, funk and disco in the 1970s and early 1980s. ‘Holy Church Of The Ecstatic Soul’ shows how sacred gospel music was at home with Stevie Wonder, Blaxploitation-style funk, and produced music celebrated both in New York’s underground discos (The Paradise Garage, Studio 54, etc) and later sampled by the likes of Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg and Mary J Blige. “Curated with an obvious passion and sense of history, ‘Holy Church Of The Ecstatic Soul’ serves as the perfect intro to the funky spirituals that once served as the foundation for various schools of sound (Philly R&B, disco, soul) over the last 50 years.” – The Wire Artist Various Artists Genre Soul / Funk Label Soul Jazz Buying Options 2LP Format 2LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Andraé Crouch & The Disciples - Satisfied Shirley Caesar - Jesus Children Of America The Meditation Singers - Trouble's Brewin' The Clark Sisters - You Brought The Sunshine Dorothy Norwood - Let Your Feet Down Easy Shirley Caesar - Jesus Is Coming Swan Silvertones - If You Believe Your God Is Dead The Alvin Darling Ensemble - Is There Anybody Here?
