Gospel pearls to lift the soul

[Amsterdam Russ]

Not got many gospel 45s, but thought I'd have a go at putting some of them together in a mix. Sounds range from the proto-R&B  gospel revival sound to funkier grooves. Naturally I'm biased, but I have to say I think it makes for great listening. Might not be of much interest to folks on here, but hey, I thought it worth a plug...
