DESCRIPCIÓN DEL PRODUCTO
While it wouldnt exactly be right to call the Sojourners a new act given that each member of the group has been in the music business for around fifty years - the sound, energy and commitment they conjure any time they get together would be the envy of singers half their ages. The Sojourners went into the studio with roots music whiz Steve Dawson to record Hold On, their first solo album in 2007. Two years and many sessions later, Mosely, Small and Sanders have taken all theyve learned in between and returned to record a second CD simply entitled The Sojourners. Working again with Steve Dawson as producer, The Sojourners have recreated a classic gospel sound this time around - replete with the warm tones of Mike Kalanjs Hammond B 3 organ and Dawsons dirty blues guitar. With Geoff Hicks and Keith Lowe returning on drums and bass, and a soaring cameo from Jesse Zubot on By and By, The Sojourners have found a band that keeps pace with the power of their vocals. Never has travelling the hard road between sin, loss and redemption sounded as glorious as it does on these eleven timeless recordings. Listening to these seasoned vocalists breathe new life into classic tunes like Doris Akers Lead Me Guide Me and The Violinaires Another Soldier Gone is as transcendent an introduction to gospel as anyone could ever hope for. Other highlights include a chilling reading of Gary Davis Death Dont Have No Mercy a song long associated with the Grateful Dead. In this version, the Sojourners are at full strength as Rons haunting leads set a dark tone that is offset by sweet harmonies from Will and Marcus. Tracks: Nobody Can Turn Me Around / Brother Moses Smote The Water / Great Day / Another Soldier Gone / Strange Man / Lead Me Guide Me / The Neighborhood / When I Die / It's Hard To Stumble (When You're Down On Your Knees) / Death Don't Have No Mercy / By And By
