V/A - V.A - God Give Me Light 1927-1931: Sanctified Vol. 2
Notes

A truly outstanding 78rpm gospel collection from Herwin Records, featuring knockout performances from a handful of both black and white sanctified singers of the day. As the liner notes say: “Unfortunately, very little is known about the artists in this album.” I do know that I recommend it, highly. 320 vinyl rip by yours truly. Enjoy.

    Nick, perhaps the most admirable of your many admirable qualities is that you take the time to painstakingly rip, upload & post music that *you* love with no apparent regard to whether or not it’s hyped, cool, known, unknown, canonical or collectable.

    This lp is wonderful. As always, my sincere thanks!

    xoxo
