The clips have been recorded on a portable player so might sound a tad more high end....the 45's all play loud and strong on technics turntables and suchlike. Dixie Wonders feat. Cleophus Mabone 'My soul has got to move' (Memorial) M- (3 pin point label marks, barely visible) Price in US DOLLARS = $300.00 Killer dancefloor gospel soul funk that's prime for todays market.

Cheers for taking the time for getting it right, mate.......definitely excited to see how the CD's sound given all the work gone into the mastering! BTW.....How's the 45 coming along?

Thanks alot for the comments, Ian.....cheers for checking out the show! Looks like I'm going to have an extended stay in the UK (til the end of August), so I'm hatching a plan with Dave to present the next 3 shows live from the UK. The June show will overlap with the release of the comp so we're going to use it as a promotional vehicle, all being well. So the date shift works kinda nicely ;) Excellent news on the mastering.....can't wait to see and hear the finished product! Cheers.......G

Here's the 12th installment of The Divine Chord Gospel Show which appears monthly on dublab.com https://www.mixcloud.com/gregbelson/divine-chord-gospel-show-pt-12/ We start with a hyper rarity out of Bakersfield CA...a 45 causing a lot of buzz around Europe and so far there have been less than 10 copies discovered...presenting Willie Dale! Plus we air out a metal acetate courtesy of the High Steppen Crossroads Singers - a heavy funk groove that needs way more exposure. In the 2nd section, we venture to sweet soul territory by way of San Jose & Sisters Lydia & Merna. Plus a relatively new discovery by the Fantastic Goldenaires gets a timely spin....and we head to the mid west for the Swan Mellarks & the Jean Johnson Singers To close, it all goes a little more modern with killer dancefloor tunes from Jo Armstead, Dorothy Norwood & a sublime rarity from the Johnson Gospel Singers! Feel free to join the facebook group 'The Divine Chord Gospel Show' for updates. Thanks for listening.
