We're honored to have as our first ever guest on The Divine Chord Gospel Show, a very special recording artist, DJ/Collector and musical archivist, Mr. Eli 'Paperboy' Reed!

 

 

Eli's trademark soaring vocals and distinctive r&b sound have led him to perform all over the globe, including various key TV shows like 'Later with Jools Holland' and 'Live at Daryl's House'. He released his 4th LP last year, and it's clear that his career is going from strength to strength.

 

Here's a youtube link to one of those performances;

 

 

His knowledge of gospel is incredible and rooted in his first hand choir experience, where he fine tunes his stellar vocal techniques. Eli will be armed with a box of gospel 45's that will shake the roof, no doubt at all.....he's a native of Boston so a lot of his discoveries will be straight out of the East Coast......

 

.....making this not just a clash of collectors, but it's East vs West Coast too in true old school tradition!

 

Join us for a 2 hour extended special for a whole lotta fire and brimstone, all on original 45 rpm recordings.

This month, we were honored to have as our first ever guest on the show, Mr Eli 'Paperboy' Reed. The broadcast was extended into a 2 hour 'soundclash' special featuring all original 45's selected from our playboxes.

 

For the 1st hour, I blended together a selection of r&b strollers & steppers, including a mighty version of 'Jericho' by The Melodic Singers. Check the incredible cut by Prophet G. Lusk. Amazing. Just a few deep soul cuts this month, before heading into funk territory, including a boss 45 from the Hightones. There's a sublime dancefloor take on the Florida Spiritualaires' 'I remember when' too.

 

Then Eli 'Paperboy' Reed took over - mid way through the set, check out his 2 songs performed live in the studio.

 

....followed by a sweet selection of OG 45's for your entertainment. ALL KILLER, NO FILLER!
