Stax..

Still probably worth a fiver on either USA Gospel Truth or UK Stax. An absolutely brilliant 45 which, if records were priced on quality alone would be worth thousands.

Thanks in advance!

Gospel Truth in the US was the first release. Uk Stax a couple of weeks behind it.

It was issued on both Gospel Truth and Stax in the US. The Gospel Truth release is from 1972 and the Stax issue is from 1977.

A truly superb tune. :thumbsup:

i'm sure you all know this already, but just in case, "gonna be a showdown" is an archie bell cover where they took the lyrics and made them about jesus. The original is one of the best archie bell songs too.

I'll third that!

You can buy any Rance Allen record blind as they're all brilliant.

If this was a rare tune people would be fighting each other to own a record of this sublime quality.

Buy two and give one to a mate - they'll thank you for it.

Flip it over for an absolutely spellbinding version of Rev James Cleveland's classic - 'That will be good enough for me'. Rance is unbelievable. I just found out he played at the Dyblin Soul Festival (?) earlier this year , did anyone catch him ? Would love to hear a write up - only gutted I missed it, would have been a dream come true. There are some great clips of him on youtube - as BW says -CHECK IT OUT !

got "GBAS" on Uk Stax ,does anyone else think the bass line in the toon is over produced giving it a "thud"??,or is it my system?is it the same on the import?,,KEV.

The album Sanctified that came out on UK Stax in 1975 is worth getting, although I've no idea if it's easy to get.

And there's also the CD All The Way which has the brilliant Stay With Me (got modern plays a few years back). I know that's easy to get.
