Sorrow Come Pass Me Around: A Survey of Rural Religious Black Music
A collection of spiritual and gospel songs performed in informal, non-church settings between 1965-1973. Most are guitar-accompanied and performed by active or former blues artists.
“Most records of black religious music contain some form of gospel singing or congregational singing recorded at a church service. This album, though, tries to present a broader range of performance styles and contexts with the hope of showing the important role that religious music plays in the Southern black communities and in the daily lives of individuals.” – David Evans, from the liner notes |
