This diverse collection of vintage religious recordings is highlighted by Washington Phillips' "Denomination Blues" (on which he accompanies himself on an obscure keyboard called a dalceola), Elder Charlie Beck's "Drinking Shine," Arizona Dranes' talented piano playing, Joshua White, the swinging Blue Chips and the powerful vocalist-guitarist Sister O.M. Terrell who only recorded six selections during her one session in 1953.

Despite the limited subject matter, this is a historically significant set of nearly forgotten Black music. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
